Re: [FWDLK] 58 Chrysler bushings

Antonello,

According to the Mopar Parts Book, the 58 Chrysler Windsor shares the same
control arm bushings with the 57/58 Dodge. This may be the source of the
confusion at your sources. All the other 57/58 Chryslers use a different P/N
1881648.

Subject: [FWDLK] 58 Chrysler bushings

Hello everybody
greetings from Italy
I just disassembled the front suspension in my 58 New Yorker, and of course
the upper a arm bushings were dead. I had some from a 57 Dodge, but they
were too small. So I ordered a set from my agent in the States, and received
the same bushings I already had. I checked the catalogs from TRW and Rare
Parts, and they have the same part number for both the Dodge and the
Chrysler bushings. But the holes in the A arms are about a couple of
millimeters larger than the bushings, so they don't fit. And they don't
seems to be worn or out of round, they look perfect.
Any ideas? Any part number or serious supplier?
Thank you for the help
Antonello Jelitro
