Trying to put the lower control arm and strut back on the car. The new bushings i got have a brass sleeve that fit on the strut. But the diameter is too small and doesnt fit around the strut. How do i fix this, or should i just use the old sleeves that were on the car before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You might try the ole strut rod in the freezer, a little heat on the bushing trick if it just needs a little to fit.
