New Bushings Pressed...Now Can't Figure Out Right From Left?
4 Attachment(s)
Long story short had new superpro bushings pressed in for my trailing arm and toe links. Lower arm with the pillowballs I was very fortunate to buy them off a wrecked Series 8 for less than $100 and the bushings were perfect with no play whatsoever.
Only problem is I didn't label which arm corresponds to which side so can you guys look at the photos and tell me which side is suppose to go on the right and which one goes on the left especially the Lower Arm? Trailing arm and toe links I assume can go on either sides? Last photo is just the olds ones pressed out and though they were quite good compared to the pillow balls, I thought I'd replaced them all while I was down there. |
I don't think it matters for the toe-links or trailing arms. My car doesn't have them, but guessing those casting 'ears' on the lower 'I' arms go down.

Ok for simplistic sake I've highlighted one side of the bushing with red and the other side blue.
Red = Ribbed Side Blue = Flat Side If you were looking from the rear of the car towards the front which colour should be facing towards you? |

Also, the stopper bushing (the rubber ring opposite the four rubber bumpers) should be facing rearwards. The eccentric bolts are in the correct orientation in that photo. |
Oh and the lower arms can go on either side.
