How in the world do you get the big sway arm bushing on over the end of the bar? It looks like it can't be done? Thanks!Joe

Mine were cut on the flat side if I remember right, so you can open it up and push it onto the bar. SteveW

Now I'll have to go home and make sure I'm not just seeing things. I don't think mine are cut but I could be smoking too much crack or something

Even with the slits, these bushings are not very flexable and will be a PNTA to get on (maybe thats why they sent 4 bushings and Brackets ???? same with the sway bar end links... ------------------ *WARNING: RATED MA for Mature Audiences only!* Joseph J Shaffer IV Walla Walla, WA MustangsandMore Member# 37 '68 Mustang Coupe, 2.79 gears.
