The Vortex 'How to' link is busted. I got my old bushings out and now I need to find out how to install the new ones. The old(original) had a steel collar, the new one has a composite one - the guy I bought them from said they have to be installed in a particular alignment. Can anyone link me another "how to" or pics on how to line them up properly?

Thanks

I use a long threaded rod, nuts, washers, and whatever adapters I find lying around to press the bushings back in. Fairly easy to do in-vehicle, if you so choose. (assuming you have the "whatever adapters" !)
