Here's the deal...
The original bushings for the inner lower wishbones were rubber inserts. Of course, we all know Standard later modified that bushing to be a nylon insert. I have an issue with one of the lower strut forgings, in that it has some rust in the hole for the inner bushing. I ordered the bushing kit, and it came with the "updated" nylon style inner bushings. With the rust, the hole in the forging is slightly bigger, so the nylon is loose in the strut. I think the original rubber bushing style would fit perfectly and take up the slight gap that the nylon cannot.
SO, does anyone know of a source for original style rubber inner bushings? And, if not, does anyone have a line on a left rear/right front lower strut forging?
