[Shotimes] Strut Rod Bushings Question

[Carl Prochilo]

Agreed.  I should have been more specific on that point.  The parts in
question are for Strut Rod to frame.  Looking at the service manual, the
literature calls it a tension strut.

The part number printed on the box is 4.7119G.  The worst case for me is
to start the job and then find out the parts are not correct.  I'll at
least be able to eyeball the parts before I start turning ratchets.

BTW, if anyone has any hints or tips on doing the replace, please send
them my way.  The job looks fairly straightforward, but the devil is in
the details.

Cheers,
