Subject:      Control arm bushings
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

In getting ready to put in my new Syncro springs and soon-to-come OME
shocks, I want to replace any other pieces of the front end that make sense.
My primary concern is getting rid of the irritating squeakiness.


So far all I have is the 4 upper control arm bushings ($24.95 ea. @ Bus
Depot  251 407 077).


1. Are there "lower" control arm bushings?
2. Is there anything else I should repair/replace while I'm at it?
3. Is there any way to keep the new bushings from getting squeaky with time?


I'll probably do the front brakes, too.


Thanks in advance
