Finally getting around to assembling my front suspension. I'm installing new polygraphite bushings and they're starting to piss me off!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fighting19.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) , Are they usually rather tight (hell, I need a press) going on the suspension arm? Or am I doing something wrong here? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

But if it doesn't bind how are you supposed to get that squeak that tells everybody you have upgraded bushings?
Eric, pretty picture. What caliper paint did you use? |
