We offer several types of bushings: rubber, polyurethane, brass, and Del-a-lum (pronounced della-loom). Unquestionably Del-a-lum bushings are the Top of the line when it comes to suspension control and longevity. They will out last all the other bushings listed. In fact Del-a-lum bushings have  a life time warranty to the original purchaser. No other bushing has a warranty that strong.
Del-a-lum bushings are approved for several racing sanctions including NHRA. They are excellent for street, road race, and dirt track applications.

For more information about Del-a-lum bushings go to What is a Del-a-Lum ????

The following chart lists Del-a-lum upper and lower control arms bushings, plus upper control arm shafts. Shaft information is located below the chart.

Notice about 1012 kits:
Most upper control arm shafts on A-bodies from 1964 through 1972 generally use a 3/8 bolt at the end of the shaft. The 3/8 bolt holds the control arm bushing in place. In order to use Del-a-Lum bushings, the 3/8 bolt must be replaced with a 5/8 stud and slotted hex nut. Welding will be required. Once the bushing is in place and the nut is properly adjusted. A cotter pin is used to secure the nut. (The torque required for the slotted nut holding the bushing in place is similar to that of a wheel bearing, therefore a cotter pin must be used for maintaining the setting.)

Part # 1030 comes complete with studs and Del-a-lum bushings. The photo to the left shows how the stud will have to be installed in the shaft. The stud will be pressed in the end of the shaft and then welded. Note: Welding will be required for installing a 1030 kit.

Note: Cars already using aftermarket shafts featuring 5/8 hex nuts will use Part # 1012. (1012 does not come with studs).
 

Del-a-lum Upper control arm bushing kits for stock control arms Part# 1012 --- $130.16 per pair
(bushings only)
Part# 1030 ---  $169.72 (studs are added in kit)

Del-a-lum Lower control arm bushing kit for stock control arms:

Notice about 1013 kit: There are 2 different lower control arms used from 1967 to 1972. The 1st design has one round bushing and one oval. You do not need to take the control arm off the car to check this. Simply feel the bushings in the control arm. You will be able too tell if one is oval or not. We do not manufacture a bushing kit for oval control arms. However we can change your lower arms into round style. Simply send them in to us and we will convert them over plus press the bushings in for you.
The 2^nd design has two round style bushings. The diameters are 1 5/8-inch round and the other is
1-3/8-inch round. The part number for this arm is 1013.
Part# 1013 --- $156.20

Billet cross shafts and offset shafts:

We manufacture two styles of cross shafts, offset and standard. Both shafts may be used in stock or tubular control arms. The shafts are Gold Zinc finish and hardware is supplied with each shaft. All shafts will except standard rubber, poly, or our Del-a-lum bushings.

Part #709 (to the right) fits all 1967-69 Camaro/Firebird standard upper control arms. These shafts are also standard with our tubular upper control arms that are fully assembled.

Part # 709 --- $62.32 each (2 required per car). 
709 shaft is on the left. 702 offset shaft is on the right see photo
Note : Shafts can also be used with vehicles with lowered pivot holes.

Part # 702 --- $68.22 each  (2 required per car)
Offset upper control arm shafts are used to obtain more latitude for alignment settings. These shafts are a good investment if you are using stock upper control arms. More positive caster can be achieved while still maintaining proper camber. They are not necessary with our tubular upper arms.

Note: Global West tubular tubular control arms generally do not require offset shafts. We have built geometry enhancements into the control arm so offset shafts are not needed..
