Have 2001 jeep cherokee-laredo 4.0. There is low oil pressure. Sending unit and oil pump have been replaced. Still have low pressure. Heard cam bushings could be worn out. Any knowledge?

Check the pressure with a mechanical gauge. If it is still low, remove the oil pan and make sure the pick-up screen is clean. As far as the pressure, crank, cam, rod. Bearings can cause low pressure, but usually you would be able to hear a knock or a ticking sound. Check it with a mechanical gauge to make sure the wiring to the interior gauge is isn't getting a bad reading.
