Droff Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I've rebuilt my front end, replacing what was needed but I can't find the felt bushings that go between the center link and the pitman/idler arms. The originals were just too bad to re-use. Anyone know of a source or a suitable sub? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I would think they should come in with the new part, check with supplier or manufacturer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Droff Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 I didn't buy a new centerlink/draglink, but pretty much every new one I see online has the bushings with it. The one already on the car looks fairly new, don't know if it's the original or not. How do I know if it needs replaced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Will these work? Dust covers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballubet Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Those are for the tie rod ends. They are too big. The center link just uses a thin dust boot. Â Try the Help center at your local auto parts store. Or if you feel adventurous ask the clerk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Droff Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Would the round felt pads used on battery terminals work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droff Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 I went with the battery terminal pads, two on each side. It looks all Christmas-y now, red and green pads on each side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1970montess Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I just bought the Moog centerlink and it comes with the new felt pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtankjones Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 My center Link just came with plastic pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
