I need some help. This is for anyone that has looked or worked with stock control arms. I have oval bushings in my 86 on one end of the LCA and a round one on the other end. I bought some arms off of Ebay and the holes are round on both ends. I have a Polyurethane kit and I have oval bushings in that too. He said in his auction that they came off of a 91 GT, but I have never seen a round hole on both ends on a LCA. Now I am not sure if this kit will work for these arms becauase of the bushing differences.

Here is the auction. You can see how the holes are the same on the LCA.

Here is my bushing kit. Since there are no directions with it, I do not think I have the correct bushings to fit in these arms.

I mean the arms look the same, but the bushings are different. I do not want to box these if they are not going to work with my poly bushings.

Please help, I want to start these but do not want to waste my time.
