    Hi - I have a 64 LeSabre Convertible. I wanted to change the rear springs, as difficult as they were to find I did find a set (Eaton Springs). I dropped the rear control arm thinking I would change out the bushings as well. I can NOT find replacement bushings anywhere. Summit (and a few others) say they have 64 LeSabre bushings but they are too short (see pictures). Does anyone know where I can find 64 full size rear control arm bushings? It would be a big help. Thanks for your help...

    The picture shows the 2 rear control arms. I removed the bushings on 1 control arm, I didn't do anything to the second. The old bushing insert vs the new bushing insert shows the difference in length.
    So... Unless I find some sort of replacement bushing, I'm kind of stuck. Lesson Learned - don't remove (ruin) bushings unless you have replacement bushings in hand.
