Question Re-installing I-beams

Hey ya'll. I replaced my rubbers with polyeuathane and am having troubles aligning my i-beams. I can't get the bolts and holes to line up. Does anybody know of any tricks or is it a trial and error thing? Thanks for the help.

Did you tighten up the nuts and install the kotter pins on the bushing side, before aligning the axle to the I beam? The new bushing would not allow you the play to do so. Try the reverse.
