1973 upper control.arm bushings
« on: April 02, 2023, 11:27:56 AM »
Does anyone have a source for upper control arm bushings for a 71-73 pinto.

Mine are deteriated and i am in the process of replacing them.

I got some moog k8219 from orreilly which is what they said would fit but i think they are for a 74 and up.

Mine measure

Bushing #1 Length    1.614
Bushing #1 I.D.    0.628
Bushing #1 Small O.D.    1.262
Bushing #1 Large O.D.    1.305
Bushing #1 Shell Length    0.956
Bushing #2 Length    Same
Bushing #2 I.D.    Same
Bushing #2 Small O.D.    Same
Bushing #2 Large O.D.    Same
Bushing #2 Shell Length    Same

The 74 and up have an od of about 1.40 and id of about .630

Some sources list a k8169 but oreilly list the dimensions as the same as the k8219.

Thanks

Ed
