A compressively resilient, dual layered bushing useful for aligning shafts and couplings and adjusting shaft misalignment. It has a cylindrical sleeve with an outer wall, and a hollow core defining an inner wall extending from a top to a bottom of the cylindrical sleeve. The cylindrical sleeve comprises a first compressively resilient material and has separated, parallel grooves through the outer wall around its circumference. A cylindrical outer tube is attached around the outer wall of the cylindrical sleeve from the top to the bottom. The outer tube has a smooth outer wall and an inner wall having separated parallel projections extending outwardly around the inner wall of the outer tube. The projections are attached to and mate with the grooves through the outer wall around the cylindrical sleeve. The cylindrical outer tube and the projections comprise a second different compressively resilient material.
