Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1977-1980 Lincoln Versailles, front upper. Fits 1975-1980 Mercury Monarch, front upper. This is a press-in bushing, so the control arm must be serviced with the correct tools and procedures for bushing removal and installation. Inspect the control arm and surrounding suspension components for wear before installation, and verify proper seating and alignment after service.
