I boxed my stock LCA's (89 TTA), and installed poly bushings (complete with the metal shells).

No problem installing the bushings but they also come with a thrust washer (in poly) that is supposed to sit on the out side of each bushing in the LCA to prevent "walking side to side" and accepting side load pressure created upon hard cornering.

Problem I have is that having the thrust washer on and trying to install the LCA agian the width of the whole package is slightly to wide to squeese in place. I can compress the thrust washer as it's made out of poly but it's not that easy (and no room) while installing the LCA's. Anyone had the same problem and can give me some hints what to do?

I can't remeber the brand of the poly bushings as I originaly bought these years ago for my other 3rd Gen but never installed them and used them for my TTA instead.

 

Bend the brackets out a little bit, a few love taps with your BFH.

 

Got it sorted, used a jack to "press" them in place all the way so I could get the bolt in there.... very tight fit that is for sure but will make a big difference compared to stock.
