Massive inprovement in front end feel for 50$

Does moog make a control arm with those bushings already installed? Thst way I don't have to take off my old arms and get thee pressed in?
 


Nope, i wish they would. They only sell them separately. They have a problem solver arm, but it doesn't have this bushing.
 
You can tell by looking at the picture, the bushing has 2 slits in it whereas the good problem solver's rubber is one piece. I also know a few who thought it might of had it, but when they bought the arm it had the old rubber crap.
 


Why does the bushing look like each one is installed differently? I have some one the way and was wanting to make sure i have them pressed in right.
 
Dang, had I known about these I would have waited. Just about a year ago I ordered some uni-balls and mis-alignment bushings to install in my LCA's. I then had to have the o.d. of the uni-bal cup turned down to fit. The whole projest cost about $200 but one benifit is that the machinist made me some Derlin inserts to replace the horizontal rear bushings.

Pics would be cool
 


I just bought some and I noticed one has a torn boot from the factory should I try returning it or is it no big deal? It's only there to keep dirt out I think.
 
I guess I should of looked at the part closer once I noticed a spot of rust on it. Contacted the seller and waiting on a reply.

Would a ball joint press kit work for putting these in, only thing the local stores have to rent.
 


Do they make any poly bushings we can press in?
I might have asked this before but forgot. I ordered a complete poly kit for my other car but figured the wbody car would be trickier

Poly wouldn't be better, it'd be worse. The monoball design isn't constantly trying to go back to center, it stays where you put it so it works with the steering system instead of against it. I'm not 100% sure but I believe Moog use poly to seal off the monoball stuff though.
