68 control arms

Post by T100912 »

Just need clarification on this, or to tell me I’m barking up the wrong tree.

On a 68 the control arms are early arms and the bushes are late so 69?

I’m at the point of ordering but I just to know which ones to order… a lot of them say 65-67 then they miss out 68 completely and just simply say 69 or others say 69-80 or I’ve seen some that say 65-80.

68 is an odd year
As I remember LWB bushes with SWB ball joints on the end of them
Quick way to check if the bushes have metal inner and outer sleeves they are SWB if the bushes are all rubber they are LWB

Ah yes, cheers. The bushes I have removed are all rubber with no sleeves. So from what I’ve seen online, I can just go for 69 > bushes
