When I installed the new shafts and bushings I put my seals on the shafts first then put grease on the shaft threads and the A arm where the bushings go in. inserted the shaft into the A arm them started the bushings hand tight until the bushings started into the A arm on both sides. Turn them in about another turn then check to make sure the shaft is centered in the A arm. I check this by measuring the hole in the top shaft to the outside of the A arm and turn the shaft one way or another to center in the A arm. The same way for the lower but I measure off of the shoulder of the shaft to the outside where the bushing goes in. This was my first install and it is a little intimidating in the beginning but its not that bad.

Awesome! Found the pin, didn't realize it was in the saddle. Thanks so much!
