It really has everything to do with the flexibility of the rubber. The factory 
replacement parts In the 1960â??s /70â??s were very flexible and you could 
squeeze them through the hole easily. At that point the rubber bushes on a ten 
year old car had harden and broke frequently. Many of the later aftermarket 
parts are too hard to start with. 
Suggest slobbering some vasoline or other rubber lube on the bush then squeeze 
and push to get into position. If it breaks try another. Wipe up the excess goo 
and slide the stud through. Donâ??t forget the flat washers.
