Yeah, I made a fancy tool to compress it. haha It works great. Don't have time to post a picture, but take two hose clamps and connect them together to form a long oval. I think the clamps were like 2 1/2" diameter or something. They were old saab clamps. Then just fit it around the bushings and tighten the screws. I have used it many times and it works great.
