Thanks Tim. I'll admit to not having looked for a replacement in the time since I rebuilt the rear in my '53. At that time I don't think they offered that part seperate, only offering it as a rebuild service.

Is that part 'as original'? The original looked to be just the metal bushing surrounded by rubber, not metal/rubber/bushing.

How did you install them ? Can they be installed with a long bolt slid through the mount and bushing than drawn into place while tightening a nut at the opposite end? Or are they tight enough to need a press?

Thanks, Jeff
