I purchased poly bushings and lift spacers from Titus on here. He and I have been in contact, and both are struggling to understand why we are having difficulties. My mechanic cannot get the arm bushings to slide into the axle and frame brackets once installed on the arm. The "lip" of polyurethane is much thicker than the stock bushings, and he has tried expanding the stock bracket to no avail. They still bind towards the top of the bracket, even with copious lube and lots of pressure. That and the brackets are much wider than they should be now and flared out.
The other issue is this snugness causes the caster correction angle to rotate as you fit them in. So either way the bushings are too thick. The stainless steel inserts are the appropriate width.
It's been suggested to belt sand away some of the polyurethane material but I wanted to see if anyone had any installation tips, tricks, or help? thanks!
