Had another hellish day working on the car yesterday. I thought I'd be able to press the old torque rod bushings out and the new poly ones in using the MOAV (mother of all vices), but when I greased em up they'd just go in cockeyed and shoot off onto the floor. When I tried it without the grease I could only get them in half-way.

I was able to modify the TAB tool using a 1 1/8" socket with a half inch drive to draw the bushing into the torque arm as seen below. Just FYI.
