The center section was too small for the factory bolts however and too short anyhow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PNVU9811-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PNVU9811-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PNVU9811-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PNVU9811-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PNVU9811-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PNVU9811.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution was to use the poly bushings with the factory centers which worked out fine after getting the old ones apart. Below you can see the issues and differences. There will be some extra space in the middle but I can&#8217;t see that being a problem. Just a good grease reservoir in my opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/WTKB8508-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-782\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/WTKB8508-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/WTKB8508-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/WTKB8508-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/WTKB8508-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/WTKB8508.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/index.php\/automobiles-and-projects\/1966-galaxie\/66-galaxie-build\/\">Back to the Build Page<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back to the Build Page Rear Control Arm Break Down Breaking down the rear control arms wasn&#8217;t too bad with the 20ton press, some properly sized exhaust tubing, and some penetrating spray.
