There is only one pair of bushings in the rear kit that aren't exactly correct. It's not enough that they don't work, it's just the reason they don't list it as compatible from 79-97. The upper arm bushings on the axle, do not have the slightly larger diameter end like the rest of the bushings (about 3/32" larger) and they are also just a little bit narrower. But the bushings still fits, it just takes a little persuasion to get the upper arm on far enough to get the bolt in.
Did you notice a big difference when you swapped them out? Im going to be doing the springs and shocks while I rebuild the rearend. How much of a pain in the ass are all these bushings?

Bushings up front are easy to swap, but taking the suspension apart kind of sucks. Mostly the spring is a real pain in the balls. Once the arm is out, use a roofing torch and cook the rubber right out. Don't do it in your driveway if its concrete, it leaves ugly black marks. The neighbors might also complain about the smell if they're inclined to whine about things like that.

Very much, in the rear. Stiffer, both in bumps and in roll. Stiffening the bushings, has a side effect of also resisting rolling (basically like running a bigger anti-sway bar). Also fixed my wheel hop, so now I can pop the cluck out in 2nd gear and 4000rpm and in just roasts the tires nice and smooth.

That is what I'm looking for right there.

Anyone know a good way to get the bushings out of the upper a-arm's?
