Re: [Amc-list] 63 American suspension together!

Hey John, remember when we were all ragging on the AMC lower arm, with all 
it's weird twisting and the interference fit/sliding fit of the inner lower 
bushing?

Well I'd take that system any day over this lower A-arm!

You know, except from bad assembly, I've never seen a bad lower arm! They 
last half a century without grief. You can wear it out till all the rubber 
literally falls out and the parts are clunking around, yet you replace the 
bad rubber and it's as good as new. The strut bushings are a major PITA! 
but I think half urethane/half rubber solves that one.

It's grossly inelegant, but subtly elegant.
