Save the bushings for me from your donor arm if you get it. I'll want measurements and pics.

There was only one assembly there but I think it is for the left. The orientation of the sway bar mount leads me to believe that it'* the left side. Check out the pic and verify.

Seee Seeeee....I knew right where he left them. Odd...both were behind the red car last time I was up there with Randy.
Bandit.. That looks like a case of long term rust. While it should be a strongpoint... rust eats any metal and once it starts..gooooooodbye

i think its part of the rust but also something else made it brake, cuz my 88 Celebrity has 248,000 miles on it and none of its suspension parts are that bad... bad as in fall off
but alwell now i know to look at that part when i get my next Bonne in a 2-3years(SSEi)
also now everyone in the forums that live in a Salty place should take a look at that on there cars so this doesn't happen to them :(

Just because your celeb didn't do it means nothing. Each car and each batch of metal can be slightly different...
Really it comes down to stuff happens...
