What year is your 911? Anyway, you should be able to pinch or squeeze the bushing while jamming it into the drop link. That's why there is a slit designed in the bushing. Also, you can lube the inside of the drop link with dish soap.

The slit allows you to roll the top into the bushing hole to then fit into the mount; once it's through it expands back with the lips on the outside of the mount.

I used a bench vise, plastic putty knife and a bunch of dish soap.
I though that if I rolled it in, there would be a chance I would rip it.
