Question energy suspension control arm bushing question



well i just poped out the old one and saw 2 little nubs on the inside. the energy suspension unit has no holes whatsoever, do i just push them through?

also, does anyone know if i have to remove the 2 metal edge rings? the instructions doesnt say anything about it

Ok I realise you already fixed the problem or whatever, but unless you pressed out that inner ring (the one with the nubs on it) you did it wrong.

I made the mistake of reading this thread before I did mine and ended up pressing out the rubber itself the first time and then having a pain in tha A** time getting the metal ring out.
