Hi. I'm Matt. When the knuckle bushings wear out on certain vehicles, the original manufacturer will only sell you a complete new knuckle. To save installers and vehicle owners money, Dorman offers individual knuckle bushing kits like these OE FIX knuckle bushing kits. You need to make sure you install the correct bushing in each location. Many of the bushings in these kits may look the same, but each one goes into a specific location. These two bushings look very similar and have the same outside diameter, but their inside diameters are different. Installing one of these bushings in the wrong position will prevent the correct hardware from being used. If you force the installation, you might damage the bushings and you'll have excess play, which is unsafe and can lead to premature failure.
Here's a tip. Before pressing out each of the old bushings, number each position with a marker. As you press each one out, match it to the new one and mark the new one with the corresponding position.

If you have any questions about this or, or any other, our tech line is always there to help.
