Does anyone know where I can get the two bushings that connect the rear knuckle to the control arm? I am chasing a suspension rattle and those are the two bushings I did not replace. Moog had no part numbers. Any ideas?

Will these work for the knuckle assembly?

yes those will work but they are stiffer than stock bushings

I had a rattle coming from my rear lower to frame bushings once

Did you replace the toe link compensator too?

I have those and so does davec73. Same ones that SCP sells for 179! Very nice and when I replace the ones in my 91 I will get these again.

If you don't use those, use DLF's Delrin bushings.

He's got posts all over here, grab the link from one of them.

Well I found the culprit. It certainly wasn't one of my brighter moments. How I don't know but it appears I left the outside washer off of the lower shock bolt. I am not even certain how I missed that. At any rate I put the washer in, tightened it up and no more noise. Lol. Doh! The only bushings I didn't replace we're the lower knuckle bushings and they were tight which is why I was so perplexed. Thank you everyone.
