I recently found an old box of parts that I bought from an auction years ago. I am needing to replace the radius arm bushings, c-bushings and track arm bushings on my 78 F150 4x4. In the box I found there are a set of what appears to be the radius arm bushings. They are in the original Ford boxes with part #'s on them. I'm thinking they may be the ones I need. Also if I remember correctly there is a metal sleeve that fits inside the rubber bushings.....is that correct. I dont happen to have the part numbers off the boxes right now but thought maybe you could post the correct numbers so I can see if these are what I need. Thanks in advance...

 

mikeo0o0o0 has that capability also and should help out any moment from now.

See told you, way to go there mikeo0o0o0.

 

Thanks........will check it out in the AM

 

The only metal sleeve I'm aware of...is adhered to the I-Beam rubber bushing, not available by itself.

There are large washers (Ford calls them retainers) that butt up to the front and to the rear of the radius arm bushings. They may look the same, but are not the same.

Mike missed the request for track bar bushings...

C6TZ-3A116-C (replaced C6TZ-3A116-A) .. Track Bar Bushing-Left / 9/16" I.D. x 1 3/32" O.D. / Obsolete

C6TZ-3A116-D (replaced C6TZ-3A116-B) .. Track Bar Bushing-Right / 3/4" I.D. x 1 9/16" O.D. / Obsolete

Both fit: 1966/76 F100 4WD / 1966/79 Bronco / 1975/79 F150 4WD.

While Mike has capabilities with the 1973/79 Ford Light Truck Parts Catalog, he is using the hipoparts.com CD version that was scanned from an early 1979 edition that has errors and omissions.

And, in the late 1980's, FoMoCo changed the package quantity of 10's of 1000's of parts. When they did that, they changed all the affected part numbers SUFFIXES, rendering all the original part numbers obsolete.

The track bar bushings are a typical example.

How many of these replaced part numbers are in the early edition of the '73/79 catalog? Not a one.

And, FoMoCo is in-famous for replacing (updating) 10's of 1000's of part numbers every fracatta year!

If one doesn't have the O-S-I (Obsolete-Supercede-Interchange) Catalogs to verify part numbers, whatever number is posted...may be in-correct.

btw: D6TZ-3B203-A & D8TZ-3B203-A were still good part numbers...when Ford obsoleted these parts.
