Jeep project underway

[Lynn Eades]

Unfortunately Mike and Mike, there are lots of "how to" You tube clips that demonstrate less than "best practice" info. I guess if the bush was longer and was locked in the hanger and you didn't mind wearing the spring eye that would do? (except that no grease gets to the right place)
I note that my replacement bolts have an 1/8th gas thread in them (and it appears) like the one in the You tube clip. He has used an NPT zerk. (very loose)
His use of the spring washer, is to fill the gap, other wise the nut floats around under the split pin. I used a flat washer.
All in all, that clip fails at all points. As you say, "How not to".
