I'm installing the Energy Suspension Bushing Kit, but I'm having some issues with the torque arm bushing - it doesn't seem to want to fit, no matter how much grease/lube I use. Does anyone have any tips/tricks?



The bushing I took off (right) is also an Energy Suspension piece but it looks like whoever installed that one cut out the center section - is that the correct way to do it? It almost seems like it would be the only way to get it on.

Should slide right on, as long as it's a stock torque arm.

Not stock, but I think the end (that the bushing goes on) is based on stock dimensions.

You're gonna have to cut to fit. The stock TA is wavy stamped piece where that looks like a rectangular piece.

Ahh, didn't know that. Looks like I'll just keep the black one on there then.

Not a clue. It doesn't have any part numbers or logos on it. I made a thread awhile back and no one could figure it out.

i did a small write up on that with pics, trimmed the rubber some and eventually just jammed the bushing into the clamshell... search for title: "bmr torque arm , new pix how to install"

so do you have to put more grease on the outside that touches the bracket??
