No picture but a lot of people use the ubiquitous Mcgill rose joint, no need to worry about perfect alignment then.

if this is to hold a steering column with two uj's in it, i used a anti roll bar bush.

Its designed to hold something that twists and for me was a fraction larger than the size of the tube so has no friction.

On the TVR I machined a nylon top hat and pressed it into a steel tube welded to the chassis...

On the Robinhood I used a bearing like what whippy said!
