I'm refurbishing the bushings and bolts for the suspension in my 1980 Spit's
front end.  I'm ready to re-assemble (after powder coating everything,
thanks FT!), but now the front trunion kit does not seem to want to fit in
the lower A-Arm.  The new urethane bushings will not compress enough to
allow for the water seals (the cupped washers with rubber o-ring inside
each) to fit into the narrow slot at the outer end of the A-Arm.

Any suggestions?
