1979 Ford F150 Custom
Starting to replace a bunch of bushings in the front suspension and I need help identifying the bushings in this photo. If I'm missing one please let me know!
From the research I've done this is a twin I beam suspension and I believe 2 is the pivot arm bushing. but not sure what 1 is.
Correct, 2 is your pivot bushing, #1 is your king pins, and if you're doing the front end, those should be done also, and don't forget your radius arm bushings! And ultimately, since you're doing everything, I would throw the extra $$ at it and do your tie-rods, so when complete, you know it all is new and will drive way better!
Thank you for the info. Really appreciate it. Yep tie rods and radius arm bushings will be done as well. Thinking about replacing the springs but not sure if they're needed or not.
