A method includes positioning a bushing in a bore of a turbine housing; positioning a shaft of a wastegate in a bore of the bushing where the shaft includes a shaft shoulder and a shaft end; applying force to a plug of the wastegate to substantially center the plug with respect to a wastegate seat of the turbine housing; positioning a resilient metal wire mesh ring at least in part in the bore of the bushing and between the shaft shoulder and the shaft end; encasing the ring into the bore of the bushing; and fixing a control arm to the shaft.
