Problems with ES bushing kit...

Hello at all!
I've a problem with the ES 5.3113 kit...
This should fit a 1990 - 1994 DSM Eclipse AWD.
I've checked at ASA the part numbers - the rear suspension-/trailing arms and the bushings are at the Eclipse AWD, the Galant VR-4 and my Dynamic 4 the same.
Today I wanted to do my rear suspensions, but when I unboxed the kit I had to notice that the set for the lower suspension arm is much bigger than my original bushings...
The huge bushings with the big washers should fit there - mission impossible!

Just installed these...you need to remove the OEM bushing shell. They will go in by hand surely but snuggly. Lubed them up good.

I couldn't get them with a chisel or air chisel. Had to press them out with pieces I made on the lathe at work and then used a ball joint puller kit to remove them. Worst part about the whole bushing job

Thanks!
That was the help I needed - I still left the outer shell at the upper arm and couldn't imagine how this should fit!
Whenever we would meet, i spend the beer!
