Control arm bushings...

[Dewey]

Since my motor is already out I have easier access to my control arm bushings. As is typical, my passenger side uppers are fried due to DP heat. Is there a particular type of aftermarket bushings that are more heat resistant? I've heard that the polygraphites don't age well. Is there a heat shield available for these?

I believe Kirban still sells a heat shield.

I had polygraphities from PST on the front end of my 82 F-body for 15/20 years, no sqeeks and it handle like the sway bar was still on it.
