You mention that you have two small crush tubes, which will indicate that you may have only ordered the ARB top link bushes (which are easier to obtain than the lower ones). The ARB link bushes are very easy to fit as long as you have some sort of long bar for leverage.

Make sure you lubricate the bushes and crush tubes copiously with the supplied special grease.
Thanks for the reply.. Basically i have eight big bushes and eight crush tubes for the wish bones.

i'm just wondering if i'm missing any smaller tubes because i only have two of the smaller crush tubes.

Also, i'm confused trying to work out if the small tubes i have are suppose to be used with the thing on the left or the things on the right?
And are smaller crush tubes the same size/type for both things? And so am i just missing two of them?
