Hi all,

The bushing jumped out of the eye of my driver's side stabilizer link.

After removing the eye link I'm wondering what's the easiest sequence to
installing the eye bushing.

1.) press the bushing into the eye and working it over the end of the
stabilizer bar before reinstalling the bolt end.

or

2.) sliding the bushing onto the bar and persuading it into the eye
while on the bar...before reinstalling the bolt end.

Either way seems tough but I'm thinking getting it solidly in the eye
would be easier off the truck and persuading the bar end through it then
might not be as tough as trying it the other way.
