I ordered rear control arm bushings but they did not come with these bushings (upper & lower ), it connects the spindle to the control arms. Ford said they only sell the entire spindle assy for $530 per side. Does anyone know if or where I can get the bushings, Thanks a lot for any help.

Nope. You can only buy it from Ford. Mine has needed replaced for 2 years. lol.

Try FORDSVTPARTS (steve) at Tousley ford. I think he quoted me like 330 something.

I think that is how the front arms are also. Thats a good pic of the irs where did you get it. If it was from a service manual where can I purchase or get a copy of one?

Well. First ones are the rubber boots tearing. Then play in the bushing itself.

Ive got 55K on my drivers side with the boots torn with no issues. I check it once a month though.

You might try and get in contact with Bruce (ac427Cobra) and see what he recommends as he has a lot of experience with these bushings.

FWIW, I've got a used set of spindles that I'd be willing to sell, but swapping those bushings out might be extremely difficult, if not impossible.

Today, I spoke with Maximum Motorsport about the IRS Knuckle bushings and MM said that they will have a Spherical bearing kit out soon to replace the stock bushings.:banana:
