aren't there sleeves in the center of the bushing's you will only be able to tighten them up till the sleeve toutches on both sides so you can only go so far then it stops. so go ahead and sock it down just don't brake the bolt He-man
BUT the vehicle should be on the ground when you tighten them up not while the suspention is hanging.
