Calling all experienced suspension experts.
Just finished installing front Eurothane bushings into the front A arms on my car and I’ve got two questions: 1, How much force should it take to actuate the arm up and down. It takes about 20 lbs to get the arm to budge. Which leads to question #2. I searched the classics and only found info on the back bushings. 2, The front bushing retainers (the ones that actually mount to the body with two bolts) have two positions that they can be bolted in. The retainer is made up of two stamped pieces that are welded together. On one side of the mounting flanges there are two small plates spot welded to the flange, the other side has none. What is the correct side to mount to the body? Thanks, Chris |
