Rebuilding a '25 ****** and replacing all bushings. If I wasn't guided differently, I would hone clearances to 0.0015" - 0.0025". Am I safe with these clearances? (triple gears included)

Thanks for all your help!
 
I have done seven over the years and hone till each one slides on easy. I mark the tripple gears with a punch and fit each one to it's shaft. Never have any problems. I always tight is fine! Do the larger ones the same way and assemble with assemply oil used for engine work also. I apply it to all friction serfaces. Works for me.
 
Thanks to all that has responded. Your experiences and suggestions have helped me to getting my ****** done right.

Obviously, this question has created a lot of controversy on understanding what is meant in a long string of documentation on clearances and what is needed.

A special thanks to Redmodelt for the links he provided and that I enjoyed reading through completely.
