I have to agree with the question, how do you use press in bushings on front control arms that originally used the screw in style? All 60-72 use this and it wasn't until '73 GM changed to a press in. I can see the RideTech ones working for the '73+ but there isn't any "mounting surface" for the earlier arms to use press in bushings.
