Are you certain you need new ones? I just pulled the very crusty stub frame apart from this ruby car and although these bushings may not look like it around the edges or the visible part, they are otherwise fine. I suspect these do not go bad to the point where you would have to replace them. The engine cradle isn’t fully floating on these as there are three bolts on each side also holding the cradle into the sub frame.awesome thank you
Thanks Paul!@detmatt , now thats moving on a project , lol .
It’s a big block Mopar, it was probably running fine in spite of all its issues.does not sound like it was a driver before it got wrecked , well what are you doing with that old crank , you can use it on a offset grind .
'UMMMM, You certainly stashed a few RBz AND PARTZ you scored from our friend in A II ah few yearz back I'd think?It’s a big block Mopar, it was probably running fine in spite of all its issues.
That crank will go into the growing scrap pile out back. My engine builder didn’t want it and I won’t be doing anything requiring an offset grind. I just cut the crusty old stub in half after a week on CL & FB for a hundred bucks and no takers. Besides that’s the last of the big stuff that was keeping me from getting my silver car out of winter storage, it needs to come home.
That was years ago pal! Most of those parts are long gone but boy would I like to find another stash like that!'UMMMM, You certainly stashed a few RBz AND PARTZ you scored from our friend in A II ah few yearz back I'd think?
Good luck with that, OH THE PAIN,LOL. That score waz a once in anyone's life time. Back in the early '80s I bought 5 complete RBs and got only 2 good ones out of the 5. So I'm well aware of what you stumbled on to. Stay well My Friend, JerTh

I reached out to 2 resources on these and all indications are that they’re certainly not reproduced and the part number isn’t in any searchable database. A company like Then & Now Automotive comes to mind if you absolutely needed a set re-worked.no mine are good just as you described . but if i did do they still make them .

All this time I’ve been referring to this car as the Ruby car when it’s not at all Ruby, it’s Plumb! Wtf is wrong with me?
I realized this because I’m getting some paint mixed for it.
