I'm replacing the rear bushings and want to allow lubrication via grease fitting.
Do the inner diameter of the bushings pivot on the shaft or do the trailing arms pivot on the outer diameter of the bushings? Bushings seem tighter on the shaft, and that surface area is much smaller than the o.d. |

Very important picture here, This shows the rubber BELOW the steel. If its taller than the steel your trailing arm will constantly come loose. Many times this needs to be sanded down (As it looks like this piece was) |
