Skip,
Tried to install control arm bushings over the weekend. I had to press (with some force!) the new bushings into my New Steel arms and they seems too large around the bolt.

I have pictures below. The black bushing is one of the old poly bushing that did NOT fail on the car.




Are these Red ones right????
I have race this weekend and want to be sure I have the right bushings.......

The red ones I got were exactly the same demensions as the old black ones. The red one in the pic looks wrong!

Thanks, Al P.

Yep.. they were the wrong ones.
Confered with Jason at Paragon. Apparently Weltmeister mis-labled these. <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" />

Bummer - sorry for the confusion and packaging problems. I keep waiting for a finger to show up in one of those vacuum-sealed Weltmeister packages

Just remember - if you're not up until 2am the Friday before a race weekend prepping the car, you're not trying hard enough! <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" /> <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" /> <img src="graemlins/oops.gif" border="0" alt="[oops]" /> <img src="graemlins/sleep.gif" border="0" alt="[sleep]" />

A Bushing change is not really that hard. Figure 20 min per side so an hour total including trailer load-up time and such should mean that I will not need to stay-up to 2am.. Of course I need the parts to do that. Supposed to be here Today!
