I'm replacing the bushings on the front end of my 82.
I've dropped the strut bar ( the big bar that bolts under the lower ball
joint and runs forward and is bolted through bushings to the frame.)
Is there a trick to getting it back on? It slides onto the three bolts under
the ball joint, and then sticks. I don't want to hammer it on for fear of
mashing the bolt threads. Looks like it should just slide right on ( ha ha
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)

btw the hole through the frame where the bushings go is quite
ovalised....what effect will this have?

Comments? Experience? Advice?
