I too tried to stump the Auto parts man but got surprised. I went in to the local Ford dealer and asked for the rear bushing for a 4 - speed top-loader. The parts guy says: "What car and what year?" I, thinking that I would stump the parts man, said : It's for the only car sold by Chrysler in the '60s that had a Ford engine/transmission in it." He replied: "Wow, you have a Sunbeam Tiger?" . . .ya never know! By the way he found a cross reference that came out of a modern Ford front wheel drive - Escort I think - that was even better than the original bushing as it had extra oil passages for better lube. Godspeed Jc
