anyone here have them? my car had solid bronze bushings in the upper arms when I bought it. I decided not to change them out for poly bushings they really free up the front end.im about to get the front end aligned and wonder if it will cause the car to handle any different.

If the center bolt is still just a clearance fit
it wont change anything except easier movement..
when I use to put them in I drilled a hole to the
center then put in a zert fitting for grease so they
would live longer
EDIT
I also indexed the bolt hole to allow for more caster

So when and where will the maiden voyage take place? I would love to see it for all the workmanship you put into it
