okay .... this install is very straight fwd. just unbolt all the attached locations and put on the new bushing and re-install. but here is my question?

 

how tight should i turn the 1" nut at the end of the bushing? if i tighten the nut on the compression rod to the point that the washers touch the metal bushing sleeve then the new urethane bushings look very compressed ie. the rubber is bulging out of the sides.

 

so should i back it off so the bushing is just slightly compressed, half way compressed or all the way with bulges? see if it is all the way then i know that the washers will be touching the metal sleeve and prevents any unwanted shifing... and i know that is the goal for sports cars but what about my pathy?

 

now for sure? any experience would help... thanks
