They should turn with the knuckle in the c-hub they are like bushings. If you bent the c-hub then where you put the bushings will no longer be parallel with each other. A washer sounds like it should work if you can get them in there. The reason I suggested new bushing is I have seen the ends get smashed from over tighten and this would make the bushing shorter.
Good Luck
that makes sense, not parallel = not good. i think i am going to try and find a washer or two and stick them in there. hope that works or else ill be sending back the c hubs. sucks though, i had to cut apart one stock c hub to get the bushing out so ill have to buy another set of them if i want to go back to stock
thanks for the help, ill post up if/when i find a solution
