Location: Newark, Texas (Fort Worth)		There are nos ones out there too. They maybe harder riding than new, but they may last longer. Poly graphite thru pst is a stiffer than rubber non squeaking bushing. You may have to give them the dimensions you need.

Thanks Guys -- and one post says that 73 Satellite spindles work for a disc brake conversion. I noticed that the kits offered use ford rotors or chevy calipers and I want to stay all Mopar

I was able to install the MOOG K7103 offset bushings. They are .040" thicker in the outside diameter. I Removed that much from the control arm to fit them with a die grinder. The added caster was well received. I can't believe how fast this floaty boat goes around corners now.
