Bushings

[Gallachera89]

So i have this here 89 Ds

I bought it with the lift and i haven't the slightest clue of what brand it is

The kingpin bushings are absolutely shot, and even if i pump grease into the fittings it just keeps getting loose

Where abouts can i kick up these bushings

also there is a threaded rod that is between the 2 spindles to adjust toe in/out
and mine is nice and bent
Any clue where i can kick that thing up at

I haven't dealt with many of those lifts, but the ones I've seen the king pin bushings are usually the same or very similar to the stock bushings.
If you cant find anything else, you can knock them out and mic them for outside diameter and length.
Also remember that most of the time after installing new bronze bushings they need to be reamed to the correct inside diameter so the kingpin will fit.

If that has threaded rod for a tie rod, you need something stronger than that. General threaded rod does not have adequate tensile strength for use on steering or suspension parts, even on a golf cart. It's bent because it's too weak for the job. The next bump could break it and leave you with no steering.
