    Drop links rear sway

    Are these adjustable drop links correct for my 71S? What kind of bushings should I use and do you have a link to a supplier that carries them. Cant find the same rubber ones that I removed from them. The drop links where attached to a ball on the rear suspension(bushing gone) and with a bolt(rubber bushing with metal tube in the middle(rubber cracked) to the sway bar. What end should go on the bar and what end to the suspension?

    John,

    Those are not OE; But I find them way cooler... ; You know vintage "back in the day" mods. It looks like OE front sway bar endlink bushings will fit those. I have some spare front bushings that I can measure for you if you measure your pieces.

    John,

    These look like 'racer-adjustable-parts' to me though I am not a suspension expert.
    Check your parts manual or the PET cd to see what they look like as I think they should be a short one piece item with bushes of some sort.
    Suspension experts ??
