Installing new bushings
what are the best methods to properly install new bushings. I have a the complete control arm bushing set and have the front end completely taken down. Would you lube the bushings, use a vice to insert? does the pin go in after the bushing? Just looking for tips and trying to save myself some time.

Re: Installing new bushings
Honestly I just did mine and just used a C-Clamp. Put both ends on with the pin in and turn the clamp until it bottomed out on the pin.

Re: Installing new bushings
A graphite lubricant is preferred and next a lithium, the silicone will work, but if they are rubber bushings containing silicone, it can bring down the rubber over time...
