I can't seem to get my drivers side LCA bushing in with out buggering it up.  Passenger side went in fine, but I am on my third bushing on the drivers side.  I got a PST kit that came with rubber and poly LCA bushings.  Iam think of throwing in the towel and just using the poly ones because they don't need to be pressed.  I have seen posts in other topics with people advising not to use them, But would like to hear from people who are using them.  The car will not be driven very often and the K-frame is mint so I don't see much of an issue.

when , i done my front end   with PST stuff  about 10 years back they said ! they no longer sell the lower polly bushing  , only oem rubber  , think this was because there was a few wright ups in magazines !!  that polly dont locate the arm correctaly under braking !! :scratchchin: :shruggy: ????
how are you pushing the bushing in !! don't  push it in with the pivit bolt & use a sutable metal pipe / tube !!  to push on the outer lip of the bushing shell  :popcrn:

Tried that.  The out lip sheared off  :flame:.  I am 99 percent sure these are poly lca bushings.  They came in the same bag as the uca bushing and are the same size as the LCA bushings minus the shell.
