I got the driver's side TAB in OK.....started doing the passenger side in and I wasn't paying attention to the 'down' arrow on the bushing and started forcing it in. Busted the bushing!! I feel like such an idiot for not paying better attention. I thought someone here said that these are not perfectly round, but oblong in shape? Yes, the metal on these bishungs are soft. Anyhow, I ordered a new one from FCP this morning along with two rubber spring spacers. By the way, if you order the rear suspension kit, which I did, the TAB's are Scantech and not Boge's. Does anyone here have experience with scantech bushing?

By the way, the homebrew TAB tool works, but even with this, it's a PITA job!

Thanks all for your help,
Raj
