No, they are not. That one was not a 4spd AC car.
Maybe more specific descriptions are needed as there is a paper identification on the axle housing for the assembly and a metal identification on the differential sub assembly. “Tag” could possibly be applied to each one.
If you have to have original rubber then I have a NOS early 70's era traction bar set where they are included . I would not break up the package. PM me if interested.
I wasn't advocating for but explaining how you can make the best of a situation where the poly is the most available. The regular rubber ones have not been readily available for more then several years. FYI I don't think that there is a squeaking problem with use in the traction bars like there sometimes is when poly bushings are used in front suspension components. Best of luck in your search .A friend has a 66 with overrides. Where do you find the original style rubber bushings?No steel inserts . The harder more durable Poly bushings are a later evolution of the original Traction Master rubber bushing . If you use the Poly bushings and want them to look more historical correct then you can tone down the shiny appearance that the Poly bushings have by using steel wool or sandpaper to dull the appearance. The original TM bushings that I have taken out did not have any markings that I remember seeing.
One of his rubber bushings has a steel insert. Did the originals have steel inserts?
NPD has a hard rubber style bushing, but it turns out that its Poly bushings.
Is the bushings in the over rides and under rides the same?
Did original bushings have any number/letters or part#?
Did early style straight over rides and later kinked over rides use the same bushings?
Yes, has searched the www to no avail!
Thanks. The owner is not that fond of Poly bushings. Looking for rubber with factory apperance first!
