The reason I asked: in your setup, it looks like the grinding wheel applies side pressure on the rocker pad during regrind. Since there is a clearance between the rocker bushing and the shaft, the grinding wheel would sideload the pad and won't grind it true, side to side. It looks like your are using conical support (both sides of the bushing?) which will help a lot for this but i thing it's still not ideal IMHO
Is there a way you can rig the setup so it grind the pad front to back (using the edge of the grinding wheel vs its side)? Basically keep the grinding wheel axis and the rocker bushing axis on the same plane.Than would probably help to keep the grind true across the entire pad surface.
