I'm thinking you tighten it until the rubber is flush or even with the edge of the washer. Use a boxed end wrench. You might have to borrow one that size or rent one from the local parts store.

See what others reply, with the proper torque.

I would just get it "mostly" tight and then let the alignment shop do the final adjustment/tightening for you.

That's what I've always done. My 'tractor' wrenches (big) does the job!

How hard was it to replace these bushings?
Thinking about doing it on my '66.

Did it torqued with nothing in the way, and with a wrench. Looked the same . That's what I always did after that. If it looked right, it was right.
