Installing Polyurethane Bushings

[jnr_chin]

when installing the front control arm bushing (the one with the balljoint to be sure) it says to keep in the sleeve.

when installed it has some amount of play is this normal?

i also just used my hand to install them no vice or press

if too slack isnt this gonna make my car handle bad?

If you can push it in with your hand it is no good. What type of polyurethane bushes do you have?

I would love someone on here to confirm 100% whether you need to remove those sleeves in the control arms (or leave them in) when installing new bushes like Whiteline or Superpro.

i have energy suspension bushings but they did not have r32 bushings so i used the s13 silvia but it seems like they are not identical majority works but i am having a bit of slack in the front control arm ones.
