 The best suggestion that I have is that the a-arm bushings are two pieces,
inserted one from each side, so it must work.  In my case the sway bar had
solid ends so I didn't use the bushes that came in the energy suspension
kit.

I purchased the Energy Suspension nylon bushings for the front end rebuild
of
my '73 B.  Everything has gone together nicley apart from some too-chubby
fulcrum pins (thanks to list for all the answers to my last question).

The nylon sway bar end link bushes have flnages on each end that are
significantly larger in diameter than the hole one end must pass through.
The
list archive offered just one solution...  cut them in half and insert form
either side.  I can't imagine this is the correct way to do this.  Before I
resort to such a drastic measure has anyone out there found a better way to
get these installed?

Thanks
