OK thanks a lot and photos.
Where do you get the shallow brass looking cup? What size?
What size threaded rod and and length?
I'm guessing you'd use the shallow cup for installing.
That was for rear busing.
Did you have to use some lube for inserting?

For 2 front bushings...can you give info on cups sizes, threaded rods length(unless same as rear), etc?
You didn't use metal washers. I do like the shallow cup used as washer would put too much stress inserting.

2x4 is yet another cool idea. Thanks
