Subject:      torsion rod bushings vs. upper control arm bushings
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Hey team,


I have an 85 Westfalia GL that needs some front end work.  My mechanic tells
me I need torsion rod bushings and then gives me a part number of 251 407
077, which looks to me like upper control arm bushings.  Are these the same
part?  Apparently I need both.  You can tell from my question that I am not
familiar with this type of work - I'm just trying to find my own parts and
save some money instead of ordering from the VW dealer.  My van has 260k km
on it, and looking through my receipts I don't think I've replaced these
parts before.


Thanks again
Jeff
