Looking for both left and right castings. One or two of the long bolt that goes thru the 2 trailing arms from the cradle to the casting, One or two of the bolt that goes in the long bottom trailing arm. Maybe one or two of the shorter trailing arms and maybe one of the long trailing arm.

I'm finally (after looking at this for more than a few years) going to start on my 88 rear suspension casting refurbish project. This is the common problem with the 88 rear casting and the hole the long bolt goes thru. It is slightly oversize from the factory and tends to get egg shaped over time.

Found what I need. I am also looking to find if anyone has the aftermarket poly kit not installed or taken apart for the rear suspension on the 88. I need to know the ID of the steel sleeves they use in these poly kits. One would need a calipers to measure the ID.

Rodney,

I installed a poly kit on my 88 and the steel sleeves are those saved from the orignal rubber bushings.

I've got a kit uninstalled, but I'm not sure what ID you need on the sleeves. If you tell me how to get what you need from them I'd be happy to get the info for you.
