The dado jig, is that the one with the clamps on the bottom side?
If sooo,,, I would suggest not using a guide bushing at all, I have been down that road. Much Much better to use a top pilot bearing flush trim bit/pattern bit.
Why? You do not have to insure that either a. you do not clock the router while cutting the dado, and or b. you do not have to be absolutely certain the bit is centered in the bushing to place the dado exactly where you want it.
Set up is so much simpler with a top beating that rides along the jig fence surfaces.

Yes, clamps on the bottom. Yes, the bushing concept. Yeah, I have bushing s= etups but worry about those same things and really only use bushings for bu= tterfly inlay. I think I will modify to use bearing follower bit.
