1968 Control Arm Bushing Recommendation

I need a set of control arm bushings. Elephant has them but at $255 a bit pricy for my budget build.

URO has them at a much more budget friendly price. Will these be ok for now?

The plan for my car is just a weekend driver. No track time.

Its a bit of work to replace the bushings.
Do it right the first time.

Why not get the factory control arm bushings? Pelican has them listed for $22.50 each.

914rubber makes them as well, and they come with an installation tool. That's what I ended up using and they worked great.

Interesting some of the bushing are 69 and up and others are 67 and lower.
Think I'll save for Elephant and be done with it.

Thanks
