Default Energy suspension bushing problem

Well i was going to install some of my ES bushings, and the rear lower control arm bushing didn't want to fit in, and i was using the press, and that thing is awesome. The only one that fitted was the front lower control arm bushing. So i only installed one cause i was running out of time. So i was wondering whether anyone has had this problem? THanks for the info.

Double check, did you buy the right kit for your car? Are you putting the right bushings in the right place? Mine had no problems installing.

Well i don't have any pictures, and i already put back together the control arm (rear). However the paper did say it varies by size. The part number is 2256, or 2356, one of those two, but i got stuck. I was going to get some material off the bushing, but my instructor said "no".

Well today two bushings got installed and those bushings did fit they were the rear upper control arm bushings. Those fit just perfect. So don't worry about them not fitting the paper does say the vary by size. But you could take some material off.
