Hi Dave,

It is more often the case that I cannot connect to Brickboard (Error 504) than I can, not sure why though.

I am confident the new bushings are correct, as I have VIDA, but to confirm, I measured the control arm, and it is 390.5mm. (my wheels are 15").
Now, the reason I believe the area I circled in red is what remains from the old bushing is because the part of the new bushing that fits into the bore has a diam. of 32mm, and the current bore is 28-29mm. Also, if you look at the image, the groove in the middle indicates that the backside is the same situation. There is no way I can fit that 1359599 into the bore, I think it should nicely slide in and then I can bolt it.

I doubt this is the way the original control arm was because, when you compare it to the original, that surface is smooth and does not have neither the edge I circled, nor that inner groove you see.

On other forums seem to agree with me, but I will keep digging.

I will keep you posted.

Thank you!
Alex
