Step 1. Repackage said product.
Step 2. Return it.
Seriously, they bind suspension movement of the trailing arm. The stock bushing is designed to work with the arc that the trailing arm moves through and putting a solid chuck of poly back there just won't allow it.

just a question, how do poly trailing arms bushings affect drivablility compared to stock? Does the rear end then tend to swing out, what???
Just curious.

regarding trailing arms, poly bushings are garbage. they do not allow for deflection on more then one plane. the factory bushing replacement or mugen pieces allow for this.
