That piece would be drilled so it fits a high strength axle. Then you would put a high strength shaft bearing so the axle goes through with lower friction

Ok! Can you please add a link for the shaft bearing?
(is it this? High Strength Shaft Bearing (10-Pack) SKU: 276-3521)
Thanks!
And what would be the size of the hole needed to drill?
Probably around 3/8” hs axels are 1/4”

Correct, high strength shaft bearings will allow the hole that you drill to better suit the high strength axle.

Yep, you got that right.
The official link for the bearing is: High Strength Shafts & Hardware - VEX Robotics
To directly buy only bearings, this will work: High Strength Shaft Bearing (10-Pack)
