Rear frame shackle bushings w/ caltracs ???
 

Just took a 68 Camaro apart that been running Caltracs for about 10 years. The rear shackle bushings were wasted and the bolt was actually wearing against the frame. Whats the bushing of choice these days for the frame side ??? Currently making the switch to split mono's. The problem with the new stock rubber bushing is when you tighten it up it doesnt move very freely and when left lose so it does move its too loose and has side to side play. I'm thinking a urethane frame bushing would be a better choice as the split mono's come with a smaller urethane bushing in the spring eye but wanted to see what you guys are using. Does anyone offer a better bushing like a Del-A-Lum style for this application ?? I already called Calvert's and they didn't seem to have much help to offer.


Thanks......
