Do take the time to put zirk fittings in the a-arms. It doesn't take long to do and only requires a few items from sears or any half decent auto shop (drill and tap to match the thread of a zirk fitting and the fittings). I put polyurethane bushing in my car last year and lubed them up. They were precisely fitted and did not bind at all in the housing. It worked great for the season. After sitting for the winter and doing a weekend DE, they sound terrible. My kids are always asking me why my car makes all the groaning, creeking, and other noises. It gets better as the car is driven, but low speed they are noisy. Wasn't this bad last year.I'm going to pull the a-arms soon and put in the zirks. We recently did this to my brothers 87 coupe. If done properly, you can place them where they are easy to get to with the wheel on. A few squirts or grease and there good to go. A must!!!!!!!
