I posted this earlier, and I am sorry if this is a repeat.  It did not come 
up on my e-mail.

Anyways, I have re-installed the entire front suspension on my beloved Spit, 
and am moving on to the rear suspension soon.  While pressing the new A-arm 
bushings into place, I tried to get them perfectly centered, as per the 
comments in the Bentley manual.  However, because I was using  my vice, I 
could not get them centered in the holes perfectly, and on one side of each 
bushing it sticks out about 2 to 3 millimeters.  Everything seems to work 
just fine, however, and I am wondering if it is absolutely critical that the 
bushes be centered.  Any thoughts, comments would be appreciated.

Thanks.
