Adjustable control arms
I bought some adjustable control arms off of one of my buddies. He never installed them and they just set in his shop. I get them cheap knowing that they had lost the little metal bushings that go in the eye holes. He ordered them from quadratec several years ago and they no longer carry these on the website. He says he thinks they were just house brand but there is no part number or anything on them. Does anyone know where or how i might go about finding some new bushings?

Adjustable control arms
They just look like standard heim joints to me. Possibly 1.25" but can't tell without decent scale. The bushings you are talking about would be misalignment spacers.

And the misalignment spacers that would work would have one side the same as the hole in the heim and the other needs to be the diameter of the control arm bolt right? Anyone know of the top of their head the control arm bolt size?

Ok guys. I got some calipers and measured to see what size misalignment spacers i need. The hole is .550 or 14 mm. What size do y'all suggest i get? I would assume that it would be SAE not metric. is half inch going to fight tightly enough or what should I do?
