Jeff is correct, these are not like the usual bushing, more like a bearing in their action. the inner crush tube is not supposed to turn on the A arm pin. the inner tube is held to the A arm pin by the nut, the outer shell is pressed into and held by the control arm. all rotation happens internally in the bushing. If the center tube rotates on the control arm it will eventually score it and/or make it out of round.
The nuts for the A-arm are tightened to 64 lb ft
