i have just got done putting a new engine and tranny in my car and am having trouble getting the subframe lined up exactlly right,i have it bolted up and i have it very close to where it needs to be, but the aluminum bushing are not fitting right in the subframe, is there a simple way to adjust the subframe or can i just take it somewhere and have them adjust it for a resonable price? thanks scott

To get the sub frame bushings into the subframe,you`ll need to file down the tight areas.They are made with a very low tolerance(mine was .003")so there is no play.The tight spots are just chatter from the end mill.
Lining up the subframe is easy,but you don`t want to just bolt it in.There are 4 3/4" holes on each end of the subframe.You stick a 3/4" rod in each one,line it up with the corresponding holed in the body,and tighten it up.
