Jerry thaks for the response.

The sway bar frame bolts seem afully short 1 1/4 inch from top of bolt to tip.

I'm having trouble compressing ew bushing enough to get the bolt in.

Can i go with longer bolts ? Will they stik up into the frame and scrw things up.

I've had to bottle jack the clamp to compress the bushing enough to even start the first bolt.

then bottle jack the tab of the other side to start that one.

that seems crazy....ihave a gap in the new bushing of about 1/4 to3/8 inches prior to compression with the brackets
