Can't find a straight answer on this do you tighten until they are only just snug as in until you cant turn the washers anymore? or do you tighten until they start to compress and bulge? I tightened until they were snug and could no longer turn the washer but when i had the wheels fully turned i noticed the bushings were at an angle and not sitting flat like when the steering is straight is that normal?

if you do a quick youtube search you can find a video from nolathane that explains exactly how tight they should be in case you cannot be bothered searching here it is
