Hmmmmm, any info on that, B? I'm a lil flustered trying to find a link, lol.

On another note, ..... All 8 Control Arm Bushings, all the Nuts and bolts on both ends of the Torsion bars, Bushing ends, etc...... all hit the mail-waves, today! woot.

BTW, with dealerdirectparts.com, ....it's best to call them. I'm glad I did, because, just like with the dealer, when i walk right in there..... they find, half the time, with my VIN?>>>>......things are different than online ordering. Ask for Joe, GREAT help that guy was... sending me diagrams, etc., via email... just a GREAT customer service experience. AND...... FREE SHIPPING on orders over 99$

Thanks, guys... I'll get some pics of the Yellow Sticks I'm gonna stuff under the Red Runner... OME's, lol.
