now a days... if you need information on a part..specific sizes/dimensions,
etc ... it's hard to find... you go to the parts store or online catalog and
all they have is by model application only... or you hear "wuts it for ???"
building a street rod/truck there is such a list of stuff that doesn't fit in
the 'wuts it for' catagory... if you tell them a '53 Ford f-100 with a 460...
and a Mustang II crossmember ...you get a blank stare... or "a wut ?"
I'm trying to find some front suspension bushings for aftermarket control arms
for a aftermarket front cross member that has been added to the truck... I
know what I want but need to order it by size..i.e. o.d. of bushing sleeve,
i.d. of cross shaft, length of bushing...etc...
is there anywhere you can find dimensional information like this... the guy
who supplied the control arms sells bushings that he says "hell, I just press
them in" the bushings he sells are .050 too large for the bore...that don't
press in... I've about burnt bridges with this guy and am on my own to find
something that will work. I can show the guy at NAPA the part I'm needing
and give him dimensions but his computer don't compute it that way
any suggestions ?????>
thanks
John
