Rear front subframe bushing
i
I changed the Rear front subframe bushing but noticed something odd.
With the new bushing fully in place and the washer and bolt fitted there is a 5mm gap between the washer and subframe, is this correct?
I cant remember how it was before i changed the bushing.
The bushing has exactly the same dimensions as the old one.

Can anyone answer to this?

no, there is nothing stopping it besides the aluminuim rod in the bushing.
I will change the rear busnings tomorrow, perhaps i see something strange then.
I will be back.

One cant to anything wrong when installing the new bushings, so it is like it is.
