Upper and Lower A-Arm bushings...
This guy I'm helping on his '68 got his a-arms after being powder coated so the question is are these bushing sleeves (left in the arms) supposed to be removed to install new ones?

Re: Upper and Lower A-Arm bushings...
Thanks to all replies, which come to find out they are 73+, so some PO apparently has changed them out and not sure why. It sure makes it challenging to figure out what to buy. The bushings are on the way for a rebuild.
So now I'm curious which center link I have. Any body happen to know the hole diameters for 73+ center link? Thanks Ed

Re: Upper and Lower A-Arm bushings...
The center links are all the same for disc brake trucks. If you want you can verify it like I did by looking up the inner tie rod part number and the idler arm part number. 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton are both the same.
