Lower Control Arm Rebuilding

I used energy suspension bushings and you had to remove the sleeve from the lower arm and leave the sleeve on the pin that goes through the k-member. I hope that clarifies what you are asking.

I used to race an abody on a dirt track (lots of abuse) and I found the poly ones would try to slip apart (the pin would move out of the lower control arm-not a good thing, the torsion bar kinda holds it together). I switched back to the MOOG stock replacment rubber bushing and found they held up much better to the abuse. I now use them on my street driven duster.
