Rear Sway Bar Bushings

[Paul97]

About to restore the rear sway bar and bushings on my 70 cuda.

It appears replacement rubber bushings are not available.

Mine appear to be in good shape thankfully.  Any suggestions on how to cosmetically restore the bar, brackets and bushings without damaging anything?

Glass bead blasting will clean the metal up and won't hurt the rubber, in fact it will make it look like new rubber then careful masking and painting etc

Glass beads I can do!!  Thanks

Remember glass bead only runs at 40-50psi Max or you start shattering the beads

Hmmmmm I never considered that, I've had my (glass) blast cabinet set at 90-100 psi figuring more pressure equals faster rust removal
