Pillow Ball Bushings in Rear Control Arms
I am repainting and re-bushing my rear suspension before I upgrade the shocks and springs and blah blah blah... One of the pillow ball bushings is stiff (can move by fingers but takes some effort not a lot) and the other is very easy to move, niether of them had rust in the grease one had a little dirt/grit from the sandblasting done to them but I cleaned all that and the old grease out.
So my question is... are they supposed to be easy to move or are they supposed to be kinda stiff? And does anyone know ehere I can get just the rubber outter boots/seals for them since 2 of mine are warped/damaged some?
Thanx
Here is picture of control arm I am talking about the one without an arrow to it for anyone not knowing what the pillow ball bushing is.
Once again thanx
