Title: Lower control arm bushing, best choice?
Post by: jlatessa on July 26, 2020, 06:23:55 PM
We're getting some slop in our lower arm causing a constant settling of one side.

Who make the best replacement? This on a 70 RT.

Thanks, Joe

Check the K-frame itself for metal fatigue.  The tube that holds the LCA shaft can start to tear loose from the walls of the K-frame.  It's good to reinforce that area by welding on some heavy washers.

Thanks, I'll give that a good look.
We did he reinforcing on our 71 RR k frame.

I hope that's not the case.....
