Great way to destroy the bushings quickly. They should only be snugged when the car is sitting on the tires. Otherwise, they are torsionally loaded beyond their design limits and will split. Bushings are NOT torsion bars.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
