Thanks for the offer 1Rippen6, but I ordered some generic Dayton parts from Rockauto.
If they suck, or are wrong, I might order yours. Won't know until Jan 3rd.

Spf79, I did look at the ORD parts. They added kevlar to their poly bushings. Some of their stuff requires modification. I'm trying to avoid ''mission creep'' [where the project snowballs from one simple fix, to a whole system upgrade.] While they may sell quality parts, they are rather proud of them, pricewise.
And yes, I don't have a lift. This is all a shadetree operation.
