    Installing new suspension now. How do I get the bushing into my nitro charger shocks for the rear? They didn’t come pre installed. We are fighting with these dumb things.

    Rub some dish soap on the bushing and the eye.

    We don’t have a bunch vise. Trying to us a clamp and some flat metal currently. The stupid bushing keeps popping out to one side instead of going in.
