Re: [FWDLK] Front end rebuild for a '59

[eastern sierra Adj Services <esierraadj@xxxxxxxxx>]

Vincent, I overlooked mentioning that the standard strut bar bushings
get "crushed-
together", into a ball-like mass, when they are tightened-down, during
installation.

The H.D. bushings (IIRC) are solid-pieces, and REMAIN solid, on either
side of the X-member--
the only 'tricky' thing is to install their front steel retaining-cups
with the concave section facing
FORWARD (which "looks" to be 'wrong'), instead of  having the concavity
'"enclose/cover" ' the bushing, itself. The concave-forward aspect
allows the strut-bar
movement to travel around the retaining-cup's concavity, instead of
being "restrained" by the
'cup', I believe.
