These new bushings are a very very important step in the right direction to be getting —- our stock —rear control arm bushing —-replaced with a more reliable part than has been available to our communities for a lgood number of years
Finally a solution to keep the stock control arms working as they should for more than 600 miles after replacement which was the only other short lived option for too long
This is a serious break thru for the community
Nice work my friend
Enjoy

How long and how many miles— do you currently have on the bushings that Russ now has available ?
The issues with these bushings is there longevity or lack of it in the past — which we only know and learn by repair trail and error with new available replacement parts for our great Cadillacs
We need to know what works and what does not for restoration replacement parts as stock bushings are no longer available
Feed back and communication here is the only way we know the scoop on replacement parts that work that are available in 2022 for our 63-64 Cadillacs to keep them rolling
Solving reliable replacement out of stock part issues is one hell of a big deal to me and this community
Getting it done with some feedback from our fellow Cadillac friends is how this kind of a thing will get repaired once and fix the issue as it should for the length of time it should
These problems getting solved that have not had any solution for a few years on this site is very very exciting to me and makes me have hope for the future performance of my 64 convert
Nice work guys !!
Enjoy
I installed them about 2 years ago and I think I’ve put about 1000 miles on them. The look as good as the day they were installed. One good thing about them is once the sleeve is installed the bushing replacement is easy if it ever has to be done in the future, and the replacement is readily available.

That is very good news and thanks for your feed back and experience

Hey guys, I need some help. Could someone send me some pictures on how the first hood release lever on a factory 1964 Cadillac is set up, where it comes though the grille. Not the secondary one. I need to know where the thumb or finger position is located through the grille. Is it above or below the center grille molding piece? Mine seems to be positioned behind the center molding piece and will not adjust above or below the molding. I have a wire tied to it to release it…

I removed the front cover to change out the timing chain & gears all that went pretty well when I put the cover back on I put in a fresh oil filter ,filled it up figured it would be enough to prime the oil pump when I started the car .Fired up the car and heard lifters rattling, So I shut the car down right away. So I removed the oil filter housing, and poured oil down the neck of the oil pump housing filled it up and filled up the filter put it all together and fired it up and same…

Caddy members, I’m upgrading my 64 2-door coupe deville.
motor guy lost my block (machine shop went under) so I’m replacing motor & tranny with LS conversion. I have motor parts (other than block) for 429, rebuilt transmission, converter, and too many other motor parts not needed with fully dressed LS going in.
Email me (Tom.reichenberger@ipsper.com) or call me (210-739-4854) if you’re interested…..I live in San Antonio, TX.
thanks, TX…

While working on my trunk lock on 64 Cadillac, I mistakenly closed the locking mechanism while the trunk was open. Is there an easy way to manually release the lock back to the open position?
Thanks.
