Split themHopr the 1970 design is better than the 69 they are a pain in the a$$ to put on the bar
How do you get them on? I tried to press them in, use pliers, hammers, nothing seems to work! And I even greased them generously. I READ THE INSTRUCTIONS for once and they showed that you just grease the bracket and bushing and then force it together with giant pliers.... No luckHope the 1970 design is better than the 69 they are a pain in the a$$ to put on the bar
Mine were split just went around 5 minutesHow do you get them on? I tried to press them in, use pliers, hammers, nothing seems to work! And I even greased them generously.

so cut bracket and reweld?Mine were split just went around 5 minutes
Why cut brackets? Are you having trouble getting it apart?so cut bracket and reweld?
I have it apart, I cut the bushing for that, but I cannot get the new bushing in now. I have heard of people cutting the bracket and the rewelding the bracket together around the new bushing instead of trying to force the bushing in.Why cut brackets? Are you having trouble getting it apart?
Have a pic?
I’d have to see it to help youI have it apart, I cut the bushing for that, but I cannot get the new bushing in now. I have heard of people cutting the bracket and the rewelding the bracket together around the new bushing instead of trying to force the bushing in.
Yes they are similar if not the same. I am just painting the brackets and sway bar so I will try a few more times forcing it in, and then if no luck, cut and reweld carefully...They will go in but it is tough. Mine were powder coated so no way was I going to cut and reweld. I did that on a guys car that didn't care you just have to cool it real fast before the bushing melts. I'm assuming the 68 is like the 69 kind of a rounded triangle bushing
