The strut rod bushings were shot, like all the front rubber, from the desert, but also from a lot of use over the years. I had some nice urethane ones on my Gremlin that I had installed not long before she got crushed in the accident, so I used that set for this job. The Eagle rides about a foot taller than the Gremlin, so I figured this was a good application for urethane, to provide some anti-roll stability for wind gusts and high speed tracking on the highway, considering how short the Kammback version is. I still have a nice new set of standard rubber ones for Molly Blue's rebuild.
Here's the procedure page from the 1982 Technical Service Manual...
