    It's time to replace the 47 year old control arm bushings on my 67 442. This car is mostly street, but occasionally hits the drag strip. Is there a high-durometer rubber bushing that is available for this that would work good? Or should I consider some type of poly, or make some up out of aluminum? I don't want squeaks. I don't mind greasing zerk fittings, but I don't want to have to dis-assemble them to grease them.
    Please shed the light of your experience upon me.:grin:
    Thanks, Joel

    Joel,

    I have the polygraphite bushings from PST in mine. They do translate quite a bit of info from the road, but they have worked well for me.
