Buy some of the plastic line used to plumb the ice maker on a refrigerator. I forget what the OD/ID is.

the build manual says bolts but I used pins, easier to get a cotter pin in to hold it rather than a nut. just my .02

Kitfox started out using some kind of Poly-tubing for the bushings, but found that Nylon tubing is a better material. Same goes for the cable bushings.

Use pins.
