4th Gen F-car Front Upper A-arm Bushings

[joecar]

Anyone who replaced these bushings, what did you replace them with...?

[mr.prick]

Strano has these
Camber correction/Offset Upper Control arm kit
They are a limited run tho.

[joecar]

Nah... I don't want those, they're too expensive/limited... I'm looking for off-the-shelf... thanks tho for pointing those out.

The stock bushings are "slotted" rubber...

the only other ones I know of are the Moog ones, and I'm wondering if they're solid rubber.

[mr.prick]

Probably the only other choice for what you want.
Or you can go to a dealership.

If you go to a stealership ask if you can get them for free
seeing how you gave GM your tax dollars.

Ok, I'll try that for kicks... ...I'll bring my W2 form with me to prove it.

The Moog ones are slotted also... look carefully:

You can always replace the upper with a aftermarket poly bushing.

[joecar]

I wanted to avoid poly...

the upper looks like it sees only pivoting-motion and no twisting-motion (like the rear lca's), so poly may be a good idea.

Thanks.

That would be theonly position I would advocate the use of poly. I use delalum bushes and the UCA from Global west since 1999. Pricey though.
