Sway bar bushing install

I have a set of polygraphite sway bar bushings but I can't figure out how to install them. Am I supposed to cut a alit in one side and fit it over the bar or just force it down the bar a t the end.

It should already have a slit cut in it. It is easy to overlook the cut on the bushings I get from Guldstrand and modify for my kits. If it doesn't have a slit already the someone skipped a step when fabricating them.

They def don't have any slit in them at all.

I'll have to give PST a call on monday if I can't figure this out. I know a bunch of you have the polygraphite sway bar bushings.
