Jeez 1.75 clamps still too big, don't compress it enough.
1.5 clamps are too small, can't get them all.
Do you guys have a link to which ones you used?

Haven't got there yet, still working out how to do it. I figure the ones that are too small to start but big enough when the bushing is compressed can go on after I first compress with a larger, then slide on the smaller and continue to compress.

These are just a little too large: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BKJKBZN7...t_details&th=1

So, I ordered these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BKJTCX4G...t_details&th=1 They just arrived today, so I'll find out how my idea works out.

You can wrap sheet metal inside clamp to make up the difference

These were junk, even though rated #1 on Amazon.
Went to Napa, got good quality clamps, job was a breeze! I'll post sized in a bit!

Isn't that kind of Amazon's whole business model? Supply cheap crap and make up fake reviews to make it look great?

That works too.

Did you get the T bolt ones or regular ones. The regular ones aren't strong enough, they strip.

Amazon ones didn't work. Even the nut would get stuck under pressure. Amazon broke when I was removing it. Piece of junk.
Got two from Napa.
Bigger one was 55-59mm in diameter.
Too big to fully compress the bushing, but good enough to compress it so I could put on the smaller one.
Smaller clamp was 51-55, was perfect to compress the bushing all the way. Also they worked so much better, and so much easier to tighten and loosen

For future reference; grease is your friend!
