Going to do complete front end rebuild and Van Lower control arms to lower my 75 D100. Do I need the Offset upper control arm bushings to help with alignment? Or it is still usually within range of original style bushings?


The only Carbs I care about are under the hood!

It depends on how low you are going. A typical 3" inch lowering can still use the original bushings.

Although I don't agree with everything he says, it is still a good watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDjfQNb0xXI&ab_channel=MoonBuiltGarage

I am still using the stock springs, so nothing too low. None of the info I have read says anything about alignment issues, so I will just get Std bushings.
