Re: Poly Strut Rod Bushings (installing)

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Their is a small packet of silicone grease or is supposed to be that came
with the bushings.  Using the grease on the surface of the bushing they
almost slide in by hand, if you don't their a nightmare.  Just did a whole
car front & rear with no problems, greasing them well.  The first car I did
I tried it the old school way with antiseize and ran into the same problems.
 Tried the grease in the box and it worked like a champ!!  When done, I am
sure your going to be very happy with the results.

Subject: Poly Strut Rod Bushings (installing)
 
 
 
I have poly bushings to go into my Valiant, and I have one of the poly strut
rod bushings installed, but it was a nightmare to get in.
 
Would it still work if I cut it in two? Or is there a way to soften the poly
material enough to squeeze it into its hole in the frame? Heat?
 
*Also, I read somewhere that the washers that go on either side of this
bushing need to have the raised rim away from the bushing, rather than
toward it, or premature wear would result. Any truth to this?
