Well, so after pressing in the new lca/clevis bushing, when I go to bolt it back up, I have to flex the strut assembly/clevis to the side about 1/4 - 3/8". Is this ok, or do I need to seat the bushing a little deeper so that there is zero misalignment? The OME spring easily moves that much and the clevis goes over the bushing with not much pressure at all. I have the bushing within 1/8" of where it was stock (and oh what a total :furious: they were to remove!).

Thanks for any guidance!

Sounds like you need to get the bushing more centered
Anyway to throw a picture up to make sure?

Definately, I won't be back to her until this evening, but I'll get a pic up by tomorrow.
Thanks Tom

If anyone has a chance to meassure how far a factory installed bushing sticks out to the left and right as you look at it, I'd greatly appreciate it. The ones I removed were pretty mangled, and I didn't measure them first :banghead:
