polyurethane bushings

Hey guys, this is my first post here. I've been just hangin back and readin the posts for a while. I've got a '71 chevy fleetside, painted a dark green. Sorry, but no digital pics yet.

I bought some polyurethane bushings for my rear tracking arm from Classic Industries (made by energy suspension), and they were way too big to fit in the outer metal shell. I had to sand them down to get them to fit. Anybody else had this problem? I was wanting to get more poly bushings, but not if I can't be sure that they'll fit right...


Thanks,
kyle

They are really tight. I replaced my whole track arm with a longer one. I have heard that some people put them in the freezer over night and it shinks them enough to make it easier to put them in.
