FC Energy Bushing Kit users please help

Ok, My problem is that I got my bushing kit a little while ago and I have installed most of them, but I still have some left. Where the heck do they go? The bushings I am talking about came in the bag that the sway bar end links came in. There are enough to do two more end links (8), but there aren't any metal sleeves. The parts list seems to indicate that I do use them, but maybe not. Below are pictures of where I have put bushings in already. Please help me find where the others go so I can get on with the build.





Here is what I have left.



Thanks; )

In that bag there should have been enough for all four endlinks. 16 half bushing, 8 sleeves, 4 bolts, 4 big washer and4 small washers.

You only use 1 bolt and a set of 2 washers per bolt for 1 endlink.

if you are missing pieces, you either didnt read the instructions correctly and put it together wrong, or you lost peices, or they screwed up

My problem isn’t having enough it is having to many. I already did the four sway bar end links using 16 bushing from the bag along with all the metal sleeves and the bolts, but now I have those eight (4 and 4) bushings left. I just don’t know where they go.

Thanks, I would feel better if I knew for sure, but I will just have to let it go. Hate to change the subject, but anyone know what these bushings are and where I can get replacements?
