Control Arm Question

[sgo70]

I'm just putting my rear end back together and was wondering how much to tighten the control arms on my triangulated four bar. I have urethane bushings and the mounts flex slightly if I crank it down, I'm not sure if they should swing freely or be tight.

Thanks,

The steel bushing should be shorter than the urethane by about 1/16".............That would make the bars tight. Crank 'em up.

Sounds good thanks.

Yup, tighten until they stop. You want the metal tabs to clamp down on the inner sleeve.
