The one I have left slips on the input shaft easily.

Highlighting this comment because it is important.

The bushing you have installed almost certainly slipped on easily before it was installed. The problem is that there are different diameter holes in the crank. When you press the larger bushing into the smaller hole, it compresses and the ID shrinks enough to bind up on the transmisssion shaft.

You need the ID and the OD to both be correct for the combination of transmission shaft and crank hole.
