control arm bushing material?
i am building tubular control arms for my truck and was wondering what was the best material to use for the bushings. i hear alot about urethane bushings. at the shop where i work we use something called uhmw for industrial bushings. is that the same stuff? if not what is best and where can i get the raw material. i have a lathe so i can make it fit. thanks for any help.

Re: control arm bushing material?
jlaird, thanks for the link. i think they will be perfect for the uppers. i made the upper arms to fit stock '73 bushings and shaft. right now the lowers are made for a bushing 2" OD and 1.5" ID. but i can easily cahnge them if i need to. any more great ideas?
