I've had the rubber bushings back on my wishbone squished together with clamps for 24 hours now. Tried to fit them into the car frame, but no luck - too tight a fit. They are fully compressed into the wishbone as far as I can see - it's not a matter of pushing them in further.
Any advice on the best way to get the bushings to fit into the body between the two flanges? I haven't tried soap on them yet or other lubricant. Is there any value in slightly bending the two body flanges apart a bit to get it started? I could see grabbing the outer edge with a vice grips and slightly flaring it out to at least get the bushings started.
