I was wondering how hard it should be to rotate the A-arm when the strut is disconneted? I put new poly bushings in from Pelican when I restored the car a couple of years ago. I was updating some front suspension bits and when I disconnect the strut I have to pry the a-arm down.
Shouldn't it rotate fairly free? Are the bushings maybe not concentric? Just curiuos as to whether others have run into this and what the possible fixes might be. Don't really have a budget for the poly bronze bearings I have seen advertised. |
