what are the rods called that bolt to the lower control arm and then bolt to that farthest forward crossmember just under the radiator..they are threaded on that end with a bushing where it mounts...I need those bushings..where can I find them? and what is their proper name?
Horizontal Strut Rods Strut Rod Bushings are available at rockauto.com. I just picked the MOOG ones, but there are lots of other (cheaper) options too. http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=203272&cc=1132063 MMB members get a 5% discount code, available under the Rock Auto Venders thread on this board: http://mmb.maverick.to/showpost.php?p=955502&postcount=38
I would also suggest the moog(softer type) over the red Energy Suspension type as they don't flex and I have heard stories in the maverick and mustang world of the strut rods breaking due to the lack of flex in those bushings.
