IIRC, the ES TA bushing comes with pretty good directions.

Re: torque arm bushing

I just replaced my bushing with the Energy Suspension Poly part and it's Night and Day. My mount didn't have the rivets for the old bushing. they were screws. I lucked out. The old bushing was about 50% gone. It really wasn't doing ANYTHING. I should have taken some pics of the old one. Anyhow, there's a difference for sure. It feels tighter.
