(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) HOW ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
My first and possibly last time doing the rear bushings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I've spent almost 30 minutes trying to get one of these damned things on. I popped all 4 onto the ball ends of the bar and the shock mounts, but how in the hell do you get the drop links on ? You can't put the links on first because the bushings collapse under the force without the ball insde for support. I've tried the bench vise, the press, smacking it with a hammer. All it will do is cock to one side and start compressing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I've slatherd the outside with pet. jelly, should I get that off and do it dry ?
