Re: 1964 Belvedere Lower Contol Arm Bushing

Thanks Chuck.

I was able to get a channel lock pliers in and get the nuts tight.  It is interesting that the actual lower control arm can be moved on the bushing.  This gave me enough room to get the pliers in and hold the shaft.  I was concered but between the strut rod and the torsion bar it does not seem that this would be a problem.

I did mine with energy suspension bushings. I dont remember any issues. I used the stock shafts though. What kinda nut is it? If its a nylock nut that maybe the trouble it gets tight quick and spins the whole thing. Maybe try a impact to spin it fast or use the stock castle nuts. The bottoms I think just push together. The uppers have to be pressed in. I remember the funny thing was they came out with the greasable shafts just after I finished my car I was mad I would have gotten them. Hope this helps.

Subject: 1964 Belvedere Lower Contol Arm Bushing

I purchased the PST Poly bushings and shaft with grease fittings.  I had a machine shop install the bushings.  When I tighten the nut on the shaft that goes through the K Member the bushing turns inside of the lower control arm. 

Have any of you installed this kind of bushing and if so did you have similar problems?

Thanks
