Just Joel Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 lol now how are we supposed to know the condition of your existing bushings with no information or pictures? ;) Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 BTW all the rear leaf bushings are NLA and the front has plenty of options that are covered in depth all over this forum... use the search function at the top of the page. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 What bushings do I need? And where do I get them? Thanks in advance! . Extremely vague post. You know what you mean but we don't. What bushings exactly? Quote Link to comment
nickel&dime Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 lol now how are we supposed to know the condition of your existing bushings with no information or pictures? ;) Original Bushings from 1972. Previous owner put new kyb shocks all around last year and didn't put any new bushings. I was hoping to find a kit that had it all Quote Link to comment
nickel&dime Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 . Extremely vague post. You know what you mean but we don't. What bushings exactly? I would like to replace them all or whatever you guys suggest. They are the original bushing from 72 Quote Link to comment

KyushaKai Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 BTW all the rear leaf bushings are NLA and the front has plenty of options that are covered in depth all over this forum... use the search function at the top of the page. This. You're not finding anything for the rear. Ever. NEVER. I'm heart broken knowing that I'll probably never get fresh rubber under my car. Fronts you can find all day on ebay or whatever. Just search to make sure you know the difference and the correct places on where to use rubber bushings, and where to use poly bushings. Quote Link to comment

Poly bushings in the wrong place (or if not modified properly) can cause catastrophic failure of some suspension parts. Use rubber, you'll be happier with rubber wondering if you should have used polly raher than having polly and wishing you had used rubber. It's a street car not a race car. Quote Link to comment

Just Joel Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I bought that same kit for my car and it was a good buy... edit: just read my own review on the website and I was reminded I did have a problem with one tie rod end being a different brand... . I recall, I never did get them to replace the part and had to buy a new one through a local supplier. Probably just my bad luck though ;) Man, I'm harsh! Gave them two stars on the review. Must have been a bad day. Quote Link to comment
Stupid_fast Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 I found a set of nos delrin leaf bushings. I wonder if delrin would make another run of them. 1 Quote Link to comment
