I'm not sure mine were that far out, but I do recall having some fun getting some of the arms back into the gaps in the subframe. Make sure you insert the arms the right way round too - they are sided(!) and it's also a PITA if you fit them upside down (sadly speaking from experience).

As above, used lots of lube and some creative nylon malleting. Worth it in the end, was a treasure to drive until corrosion got the underfloor...

Good point actually - all my rear end was superflex (or modified spherical bearings on I think the dogs (can't recall) so that may have helped.

YES! Glad you found the culprit. That'll almost definitely be the cause. I used a dremel on the first set I removed, then hacksaws by the last. Depending on your patience/how rusted they are to the wishbone I found it easier to hacksaw 2 slots in some of mine; eased them off more readily.
