Might be a good time to go Big Brake Upgrade and '92+ SLA conversion for it's favorable camber gain and greater adjustment range.

Ok since i did not want to thread jack Bowman's thread any more I figured I'd restart my thread here. My upper control arm "bushings" are shot. I just wanted to confirm (***ASSUMING THIS IS THE RIGHT PART***) that this would be the proper fix for it. http://www.energysuspensionparts.com...=MOOG%2DK8481#
I looked it up on several other websites and one did list my vehicle for an application, and the pictures from other websites also show exactly what mine look like. I would just like to confirm this to make sure it is what i need to replace. Then i will order them and make sure where i get them from has a good return policy!!!!
Heres the website that lists my application, and shows the correct pic i believe: http://shop.oreillyauto.com/ProductD...e=2060&PTSet=A-Phil

the oreilly pic looks to be stock civi shafts and rubber bushings. That would be one way to do your bushings, but at $100 a shaft, it would be cheaper to just snag a whole used civi upper arm, burn out the rubber bushings, and install poly bushings. NFC what that Moog thing is. It doesn't quite look like civi parts, but I don't know police cars nearly well enough to say its not a replacement for the solid bushing shaft.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
