TAB time 200 1991

It's TAB time. The job i have been procrastinating about. Got them in the mail Friday front and rear, and picked up my shocks and a new pair of springs while I was there.
Question.
The FEBI tabs are not perfectly round. Is this normal? I am not talikng tapered is i know they are, but diameter up and down is greater than left to right. There are spaces in the rubber which i would assume are spaces to allow the rubber to collapse into under stress without tearing. There is a down arrow signalling proper insertion. The bushing is very slightly oblonged with the widest point being the upper and lower part where all the rubber is and the skinnier part being left to right were the spaces in the rubber are. Again this is normal? About a 1/16" difference.
Homemade tool is almost ready. Couldn't find a 1/2 X 8 NF grade 8 bolt at seven eleven so I need to go to the supplier sometime next week to complete my official Brickboard Tab puller per Art again and Erlings page.
