Upper and Lower control arm bushing replacement.

Since I ordered it I think Ill use it as I am not replacing coils. The car has the original 272 in it. If I go with my 466 big block later I will change out coils because of the weight change. Thanks all for the feedback.

Greg, not really sure if a FE is much heavier than a Y Block, when i swapped out the 272 in my 57 years ago, for a FE, the front end did not sit noticeably lower. When I was doing my 59 Meteor, it had the original 332 FE, so when I swapped to the 428 CJ, the weight was pretty much the same. However, I installed new coil and leaf springs, just because I thought the 60+ year old originals were ripe for retirement. The original coils were not broken or collapsed, but I didn`t want to "roll the dice", by keeping the old springs in. I bought my new coils from Eaton Detroit Springs, and they offer the springs in several weight rates. Since my 428 has aluminum heads, intake, and water pump, I chose the lighter 292 application springs, but eventually cut 1/2 coil off to get the nose down a bit. Stil may cut another 1/4 turn off at a later date.
I was not looking for a lower than factory height, but even with lower 70 series tires on the front, it sat up a bit high.
