Mike:

Is the idea of housing first, then A-arm to determine how much the bushing must deform to account for the housing shape?

I ask because I would have thought that the housing would essentially "pin" the bushing in place on the A-arm through deformation (that deformation is essential here).

Granted, these are the poly bushings. I have a set I purchased from Smart that are all rubber. Obviously I won't be dealing with the critical tolerances!
