so you got it off ok? i had trouble getting mine off, but once they're off, they should fit right on the bushing pin.

I actually just installed these a couple weeks ago and had the same issue! I'm not sure if they made a bad batch or what, but they are a PITA to get on. I would suggest putting WD40 on them and slowly working them on, it takes forever but it works. You could grind off the anodized coating on the inside.

take some light sandpaper to the pin, little by little, and keep trying to get it on. Someone put AMS bushings on mine,and they are seized. When the trans comes out, I'm gonna try to get them off, so I can go to poly ones.

Hey man i just got the same set. I haven't installed them but where the heck do those rubber gromets go. I planed on doing the install this weekend. I also got the shifter from them but it looks nothing like what they advertise. So I'm not sure about doing the SS install.
