Does anyone have a part number for Fatman Fabrication Mustang II SS tubular lower control arm bushings. They are out of business. I've tried Jegs, Speedway Motors, Summit, Moog and Ebay with no luck. Thanx in advance.
I am in need also. Purchased for a 49 Chevy Pickup in 2003. Has not been on the road yet but lower bushings decenigrated
Try Energy Suspension. Those bushings are off the shelf bushings, no special. You just have to do some measuring and online research. ES makes lots of bushings. https://teamenergysuspension.com/
Are they different than the original bushings ? https://www.google.com/search?q=mus...CDIwMTJqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
I ordered some from Speedway Motor but they were too big. I think I will show up at the NAPA store in the morning to see what they have. I’ll also check Energy and see if they have dimensions.
I will bet if you measure the i.d., the o.d. and the length of tfhe bushing, you can call ES and speak to an application spe******t who will pick out the correct bushings for you.
Make that three members looking for control arm bushings to replace the original crumbling 20 year old, never on the road bushings. Energy Suspension chat and phone support were no help! Said they only can look up by application. Now their website has a Universal Page that has inputs for dimensions and I think the part number for the lower control arm bushing is 9.9106. Couldn't find a match for the upper. I might just run with the suggestion from post 4 to purchase some stock and machine my own, I do have a lathe. Thanks deathrowdave
im watching have 10 year old bushings in fat man front,no play at present.would excessive wear be a result of overtightening the pivot nuts
I'm pretty sure the control arms and ball joints changed over the years. Not sure about the control arms bushings. Just because his fits a 20 yr old stub doesn't mean it will fit a 10 yr old. Get measurements.
