I misplaced or lost the instructions that came with Bruces bushings. How are you guys shimming the lower control arms.


Are you guys putting the shims between the bushing and the control arm or between the bracket and the bushing?
Also are you guys using anti-seize on any of the bolts and nuts while building the IRS?
When I put the driveshaft back, am i supposed to use red locktite on the driveshaft bolts?

Some time zone
Shims between the bushing and the subframe bracket.

Always a good idea to put some anti seize on the body of the bolts (so they dont seize up in the bushing sleeve).

Red loc-tite is ok for the DS bolts.
