Just measured a set of original bushings (the ones that have more than just a
steel sleeve through the rubber) and they are just 0.875 long. Times two
equals 1.75 inches. The opening between the A-arm frame mount with bolt (pin
assembly) in place is 1.81 inches. Theoretically there is a slight gap between
the bushings when assembled using original parts. Suggest a slight trim with a
grinder to get the 0.901 bushings just a bit shorter. Easy to do.

Thanks!
Two possible suppliers; I am not sure which one.
