PST front end need help

I am going to rebuild my front end this week, and I just started looking at the kit and I have a few questions. First of all, I got two bags full of bushings and washers, one had sleeves, the other didn't. I assume one of these is for the stabilizer link for the sway bars. But the ones that came in the bag with the sleeves dont leave any room. And, the nut will only tighten down about half way. Whats the problem here. I also didnt get any type of instructions or anything with the kit. Is that normal?

you might have to put a jack under the control arm, and raise it up a little to get the full thread engagement.

That really doesnt answer my questions. Thanks though. I need to know which bushings go on the stabilizer link. Its not the tapered ones right. Are those for the rod ends?

Did you order the poly bushing or the stock replacement?

I did mine last summer with PST poly bushing and they sent me both stock(black) and the poly(red).

If thats what your asking???

I think I have two sets of bushings and washers for the stabilizer links. But I only have one set of sleeves. They are both black. One is taller then the other. The taller ones(bushings) tapper off. Please tell me what the difference is. Do I need to take the boots for the ball joints to the shop thats going to press them in?
