Some strut bushing info

Swivels are for fishing, not engineering.

20*’s of misalignment (the correct term, btw) is not swiveling.

The fact that you’ve been using inaccurate terminology for 30 years doesn’t make it correct. Same as OMM being wrong about poly bushings for 30 years doesn’t make him right.

And “a lot of misinformation”? There’s a lot of information in that post, using the term “swivel” when you mean heim is the absolute least of it. The rest of the information is 100% factual, I’ve done everything else.

And I know how a heim works. The heims on the strut rods on my cars have logged over a 100,000 miles of everyday street driving, I’m perfectly aware of what they’re capable of.



Moog is currently listing them as a 5-8 week delay, you have to accept that term to even place an order.

Amazon actually made me confirm my order again just now, they're listing as trying to ship by September 25th. Order has been pending since July 27th.

Wrong again 72blubberboo. They swivel. If you worked in engineering you know the many different terms for Heim Joints. That name came from a patent the Heim company held for a “Mechanical Joint”. And they all swivel.

Oh, my terminology is correct. I know the names that are used. But you are the guy that installed them wrong on your Challenger, because you don’t know the axis thru the ball swivels and needs to be as close to 90 degrees as possible through its motion.

You can unpurse your lips now and take your hand off your hip before your mascara starts to run.
