Not sure if you are referring to the front wheel suspension control arms and the rear bearing which is in a rear bearing bracket which is bolted onto the body with three bolts. The bearing is pushed into the support so the flange is on the outside and butting up against the control arm. The bushing bracket is put on the control arm and the nut which screws onto the control arm in the bracket is installed with its washer. The nut is tightened till the washer is still able to be turned by hand . Once it is in bolt the bracket in place torque the three nuts to the 30 foot pounds and lower the car to the ground, bounce it up and down and roll it back and forth and then torque the nut up to the 41 foot pounds setting. You should be done. Note the control arm bushings for left and right side of the car are not interchangeable says the Bentley book. Never having tried to interchange them I don't know since I put in urethane bushings one side at a time when I did it.
Let us know how you go.
