My 205 1.8 GLD just failed the MOT due to both lower suspension arms
having bad bushes - I bought two new arms as it was cheaper, but I
can't get the bloody things in! The bush at the end just seems to be at
slightly the wrong angle and I can't get the bolt through. And it's
well and truly jammed now from trying unsuccessfully to get it in.
Anyone got any suggestions for freeing it and is it meant to be tight
and will go in eventually or havei got a bad part or something? Please
help - if I don't at least manage to get the old one back in by
tommorow the car will be towed by the council.

Did you get those arms in?? i done two on a 405 and it was a bit of a
sod to do, then some one walking past me said put little grease on the
ends and it will slide in. he was right it worked,
