A Arm Poly Bushing Install Question

Got the bushings in the mail from Wayne and have a couple of questions.

I'm folling the info on Chucks thread but have a couple of questions for the experts.
Suspension bushing, the right way

1. The part number on the bushings (MO2836 and MO2558) lead one to believe one is for the front and one for the rear yet I see no visual differnece. Are they in fact different and which one goes where?

2. Sounds as if pressing them into the brakets is the best way to go. These things are pretty tight, what did you guys use to press the bushing in? Or, should I sand them to get just a snug fit but one that can do by hand.

Thanks Guys.

I'm no expert, but here's what I did. For the spring plate bracket, I used my bench vise and a couple of pieces of wood to press them in. I had to use the provided shim(s) on all of mine to get a tight secure fit. I looked back at a picture that I had taken, and you're right, there doesn't 'appear' to be a difference in the front/rear, but mine were clearly lableled "front" & "rear", so I did as just that...
