68 Upper Control Arm Bushing

[Rich G.]

I’m not sure I have the correct bushing in my 68. It appears there is the bolt, the lock washer, the metal washer then a rubber O ring. The O ring is torn on the rear on both sides. When I look for replacements the catalogs don’t show an O ring but a bushing that looks like the top of it would serve that purpose.

A picture of the correct bushing would be great.

Rich,

Here's pictures that may help.

These are repos but should guide you somewhat.

The lowers are on the left and uppers on the right.

Thanks very much. It looks like either the outer piece is separated or somebody in the dim past put an O ring under the metal washer to mask a deteriorating rubber of the bushing.

I found a youtube video on replacement which helps me understand.
