    I will be replacing the rear facing lateral links in hope of getting rid of some clunks. The Dorman trailing arms will also be going in with new brackets.

    If I use sized bolts mating old with new in the holes of the links, that should get me almost spot on wouldn't it?

    I really should have bought a lifetime alignment card last time.

    All I can say it's maybe.

    I've guessed right maybe 1 in 30 times doing front end and rear end parts that deal with alignments. New bushings and new parts just are never "exactly" the same as the OE ones from the factory. I pretty just eye balled the stuff and threw it straight on the rack because I knew it's going to be off.

    Yeah I did space out the reason for replacing them.....mushy rubber.
    I wouldn't be able to get an alignment lickity split but soon after.
    It would be allright as long an alignment was in the forecast though, EH?
