The inner steel bush is clamped by the bolt in a stationary position. The outer steel case is held motionless by friction. You must tighten the bolts with the suspension compressed because the rubber between the two steel parts forms part of the suspension. In short, the two steel parts can move a little vis a vis each other with the rubber giving resistance. If the bolts are tightened without the weight of the car on the suspension the rubber will begin to fail VERY rapidly. Regards, Ray |
