Here is the special tool needed to spread the upper arm apart the proper length to get all the threads on the bushings to line up for torque. Well OK, I just used a piece of threaded rod with some nuts and a couple big washers, but it works.
These bushings are torqued at somewhere around 95 ft lbs, that's a lot and I'll have to check to see if my biggest torque wrench even goes that high. Airplanes get stuff torqued in INCH lbs, I'm going to need bigger hammers to work on this car.
