I'm trying to install the pinion snubber in my 68 convertible. It is supposed to push through and hold in place however I can't get it to push through. Does anyone have any tips? I've tried cutting down the tabs slightly but it still won't go. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

Did you lube it up any? Good soapy water or WD-40...

I tried lithium grease. Maybe I'll try WD40 tonight.

I pushed, cussed, poked and probed,. I then tried greasing it and then cussed poke and probed. I was about to give up and then it slipped right in.

Maybe heat it with a heat gun to warm the rubber up.

I pushed mine up using a hydraulic jack. (plus lubing the ears.) :-)
