Doing Front End bushings…..

[SDMAN1981]

Me and a buddy will be doing All of my front end bushing on my 69 el camino, he told me to order them I was wondering what ALL bushing do I need to get? Sway Bar bushings?, control arm bushings… What else? I’ve never done these before.

Thanks.

A bushing kit as College man suggested is the best way to go. That pretty much covers ALL the bushings on the front of the vehicle. That said, they are not always easy to replace. In come cases you may have to cut out or burn out the old bushings before you install the new ones. It may also require a special press to get the new bushings in place. When you’re all done, you’ll also likely need an alignment. Polyurethane bushings are an improvement over stock. I think you’ll also notice that kit does not come with stabilizer link hardware that you will need to purchase separately. This IS a lot of work but well worth it. Once you’re done it will ride like new.
