This kit came with thicker bushings. Given how the OEM bushings all fractured and split apart - I am tempted to drill for the oversize bushings.

Or maybe I'm thinking about it wrong - bushings are softer than steel so I suppose thin ones would be best if the hole is not ovaled.
I took the door off the truck first before I cut the pins. Maybe it could be done with the door still on, but there won't be much room to work.
