Been a while since took the k frame out and had it blasted and painted. But trying to round up parts to put back into the cuda
Have the bushings out of the lower control arms and need new ones. But is there not a bushing or something that goes between the pin and the k frame its self? What would it be called and where can I buy them? If so. Are the pressed into the k frame? Or justbslip In?

The pin goes into the k-member without a bushing. As you tighten the nut the fit becomes interference, barely. That's why you never tighten up the pin nut until the ride height is set.

Thank you. Did not know that... that's good need to know info
Bought some bushings.(moog) For control arms. Had to take them back. As 1 went 100%all way in by hand. The other went all way in except last 1/4 inch by hand. The pins don't look to have any real wear or anything....so went and order some from some where else (differant brand also) will have the pins with me. If they don't need pressed in. They can keep them
