: Yep, I've got 'em on my '73 "Hot Rod". Finding them was my biggest challenge! They are considerably stiffer than the mush..er I mean rubber stock bushings. I haven't had any 'noise' problems as yet. When I installed them I LIBERALLY applied a silicone based grease to all the contact surfaces. If you live in a wet/snowy area and you drive your Mav in it you may need to "refresh" the grease every year...my baby only sees nice California days!!! A word of "experience"...the front eye bushings were a S.O.B to remove! I recommend SOAKING it in penetrating oil for a WHILE before you try to get them out...took me nearly five hours of hammering and pressing to remove mine.
