Eccentric Bushings

71newp · Feb 1, 2016

I see Moog has eccentric UCA bushings for B-bodies through 1972, but not after. Does anyone sell eccentric UCA bushings for later B's (I've got a 1976)? Or are they not necessary?
Thanks,
Tim

Shouldn't need them.

There's a "dog bone" shaped bar that holds the UCA bushings, and has teeth n the bottom that bite into the metal below it.

Accessed through those large sheet metal panels on the inner fenders.

Loosen the nut(s), slide the bar, tighten the nut(s).

IMO, not the most comforting design.

Wont need them. There is a lot more adjustment in the sliding control arm style than the cam style. Once you learn the trick they are very easy to align. I've done many.

Thanks to all for the info.

Trick?

I had the cam system down and could align them by feel and a tape measure.

What's the trick with the bar?

This is my first car with that style.
