front end, help me!!
« on: June 01, 2008, 08:24:14 PM »

which way do these bad boys go? i got all new poly bushings for the front end im trying to figure out which way the strut rod bushings go. i think they go the way the first picture is but not sure. Also do you suck them all the way through the k member to the groove in the bushing or does it just but up.

Pretty sure you gotta push it into the hole up to the groove.

Not sure which side is inside/outside.

Yes, they go into the hole up to the groove and it's one of the hardest things I've ever done on a car. I like the two-piece and sleeve that came on the later cars, though.

Put some soapy water on it and give it a good push.
