im in the process of welding the mounting plate on the heel board for the rear subframe all is well up until i offered up the subframe to tac weld the plate on so its in the right place when i found ,,,

the two rear mounts dont line up they are too wide only by a bit though.

I was wandering if its because ive put new poly bushes in and they are thicker in the lip between subframe and trinion they are not fully tight yet.

has anyone had the same trouble and will they compress enough when i tighten them the same with the front so im curious as to how much wider these bushes may be and could they be trimmed down if it came to that.

thanks

when i replaced my subframe i put the 2 front mounts on and the rear ones dint line up so i loosened off the front ones and jiggled it all about and it lined up eventually. I used poly/deflex mounts on

dunno if that helps.
