Rebuilding the front end on my 76 Hornet, and was going to try some bushings I had read might work for the lower coil spring bracket. The spindle has 2 bolts/studs, are they pressed in, screwed in, etc, I cant budge them either way. How are these bolts installed-In the end I may just half to buy new ones, but wanted to give this a shot, mostly older info on them-thanks.

Bolts themselves are splined. I usually put them in a vice with a receiver socket on the head side. They generally press right out like a wheel stud.

Thanks, they popped right out-I tried these Energy Susp. bushings, seem to fit, but nothing to really hold them in except the valley in the control arm. I wonder if anyone ever tried 60's mustang parts, the setup looks pretty close to what they used.
