Problems installing bushings in RE Speed Rack & Pinion Kit
I'm working on the RS Speed rack & pinion conversion, trying to install the rear lower control arms, with bushings, in the rear lower control arm mounting brackets, with no success. The bushings are too wide for the opening (see pictures), and I have been totally unsuccessful at compressing them enough. I did get one of them installed before it dawned on my that I didn't have the steel sleeve installed, but have had no success with the sleeve installed. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rich

Thanks guys...spreading the sides of the bracket was the key. Billy suggested this to me the other day and I just couldn't believe they would spread that far. Sorry.
