Squeeze Fit ??
I've found that it varies depending on how and where they are measured within the end wraps. First, measure the bushings (call Rick at SS for those dimensions). The wraps are specifically designed to really squeeze the bushings and will be a much smaller diam than the bushings because they flex. I usually need to drive in a steel wedge or two before pressing the bushings out. Getting that concentric "eye" of the front one in the correct spot can be a PITA. . . . . .
