Front Suspension A-Arm Bushings
I'm grafting a front suspension from an '84 onto my '68. All is going well - I even got a new set of ball joints for Christmas courtesy of my dear old Dad. Anyway, I want to install the A arms but not before I make sure those rubber bushings are ok. How do you know when they need to be replaced? How do you replace them?
Have a blessed New Year!

Sold what was left of it for $800 to a guy who came to pick it up at 11:00 PM with cash in hand. Hmm. '79 Sierra Grande (Black) organ donor - perfect rebuildable 4-bolt 350 and a good TH350.

Truck is gone, wife isn't. Nuff said. |

They can't cost that much. I would replace them while you have it all apart and not worry about them.
