Bushings Q

Hi, guys

I am planning to get red of the old bushings except the body mounting and upgrade them with a new one for better performance and look.

What brand do you recommend for (upper & lower Control Arm Bushings, Sway Bar Mounting Bushings, and Tie Rod & Ball Joint Boots bushings)?

What kind " poly, rubber, or what....."?

Greasable Type or not?

Finally, what website has these bushings for 3/4 ton 3500? I checked summit racing, but there is no bushings for 3500!!

It's 1984 stepside pickup is GMC 3/4 ton 3500. "daily drive".

Re: Bushings Q

Moog, Your control arm bushings are steel-greasable. Changing to rubber would require 1/2 ton control arms.

3/4 tons are 2500's
1 tons are 3500's
