    Anyone run Globalwest's Del-alum bushings on the front of their GM A-body 68-72?

    KIT # 1012

    ... mainly uppers...

    Also have Moog K5250 Cross Shafts

    Thanks

    I have them on my 67 GS upper and lower.
    Assembled them carefully, greasing them and watching the grease groves alignment during assembly. Your wheel alignment is locked in with these. I noticed no difference in the ride or road noise. They should last forever too.

    Thanks guys.....
    Just experiencing the insert/ bushing not rotating in the alumni sleeves..

    But are rotating around the shaft ..very stiffly...

    Is that normal.....?

    My GBW lowers are fine they rotate exceptionally..

    What am I missing. ?

    Thanks

    I don't know, but you could call Global West for advice.

    Yes, original a-arms.
    I laid out all the parts on a work bench. Made sure the grease grooves and fittings were aligned.
    Greased and assembled carefully.
    Should be good for 100 years.
