Re: Control Arm Shaft Bushings To Torque well before fully seated

I installed mine basically like he does in the video, although it was not as easy for me as he made it look! The first two steps worked like he shows. Bottom out the first bushing, and then add the shaft by screwing it all the way into the bushing. For me, the next step I had to keep going back and forth between getting the second bushing started and unscrewing the shaft from the first bushing so it would start cleanly in the second bushing. It took a few iterations of this before it all got lined up properly. After that, it all screwed together nicely and the shafts rotated just as easy as he shows. just make sure those shallow threads on the bushings and arms are really clean or else they do not cooperate very well.
