Track Bar Bushings
2Beers, I recently changed uot the track bar bushings on my 71 F100 4x4. I used new poly bushings from Energy Suspension, they went on tight but not so as to have to grind them down.I have heard that new factory rubber bushings are very difficult to install without a press of some sort.I would say if you have to grind on them then the tight fitment that is needed would be compromised. Hope this helps.

Not sure if they are like the ones for a 76 Bronco but if they are make sure you have the entire old bushing out. Had the same problem and tried the same grinding. Then spoted the metal sleeve that was around the original bushing. Once it was removed, new bushing went in a lot easier.
