Rear Lower Arm Front Bushing - Spherical OD
For those who have replaced their Rear Lower Arm (front facing) suspension bushing with a spherical bushing, do you know the OD of the bushing sleeve that needs to be removed? I ran into a dilemma while trying to remove the bushing since I see the outer sleeve (OD 54.85mm) and I also see a metal center sleeve (OD 43.30mm). My instinct tells me I need to remove the outer sleeve. Is that correct?
The bearing from the Megan Racing kit I received has an OD of 42.10mm. The other bushings match to what is needed (shock mount bushing and rear facing bushing on the rear LCA). I am trying to determine if I may have received the wrong bushings in the kit or if this is an installation thing. Seeing if anyone is in the know before I call Megan on Monday.

That oem bushing is pressed in from both sides so will take some work to get it out. The new one you got looks correct.
I got some pictures in my build thread when from when I replaced mine https://www.s2ki.com/forums/automoti.../#post24428493
