MG MGA - Pedal play

I have about 1" lateral play at the brake pedal and 1/2" on the clutch. Being LHD the pedals are quite close and I'm looking to eliminate this floating feel. I bought a new pivot bolt and the sleeves and bushes, but they also feel quite sloppy.
So I'm not sure how to proceed. The steel sleeves are sloppy on the bolt. The bushes are closer on the sleeves.

Hi Art,
can you send us some pictures to see if we understand exactly where the pedal play is on your pedal assembly?

Cheers
