I just got a deal on a set of MAC upper & lower rear control arms part # - 27998, I need a set of bushings or maybe a whole hardware kit. I will even use some NAPA bushings if anybody knows the right size to get. Let me know if you can find anything, I allready emailed MAC and havent heard back from them yet. Here is a pic of the kit new.

Mac emailed me back............... Lower bushings are on backorder, but the upper are available in stock. I am going to try Napa today.

Well, I just got back from Napa and they could not match them up, They had ones that would work but not exactly right. I am going to hit up MAC for the uppers and see if they will give me some part # for the lower bushings.

I just ordered the uppers from MAC for $25 shipped to me in 1 day. I still need to find the lowers some how, Mac did not have any idea when there going to get more lower bushings, they said they have no cross-referance part # or anything. Well I am off to all the auto parts store to get the best match on the lowers.

Oh.......... And thanks for all the help so far!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, I have never seen such a one sided conversation on a message board before.

Do you have the old bushings? If you do please measure their outside diameters and then call 714-979-4990. That's Prothanes phone number and if they don't have a bushing to fit you won't ever get one.

Ya, I guess nobody knew where to get the bushings. Well I did order the lower bushings from Summit, They are a new item from energy suspension. I will not have them in till the middle of March
