question about front end rebuild
 

Are the upper control arm shafts supposed to be difficult to move up and down by hand?
I replaced the shaft and the bushings according to the directions, and put it at 90 foot lbs of torque, just like the instructions said, and the control arm is stiff as hell.
If it is, then my old bushings were shot all to hell because the control arm used to flop around like a fish out of water.
I'm just wanting to make sure that I'm not doing anything wrong here.

When I did mine they are as you describe, yes! Had to put a punch in the hole to turn them.
