    Early or late spring plate bushings

    My car needs new bushings. I have read that during the year in 1967, the spring plate bushings changed. My serial number is 463127. Would it have late or early bushings?

    Post a picture of the spring plate cover. The diameter difference is quite substantial. We should be able to tell that way.
