I replaced the upper and lower control arm bushings in my 63 98 custom sport coupe with poly urathane and what a differance is right.
In the convertiable I replaced the uppers and lowers with NOS rubber and they tore apart in one year so if you can get the poly urathane bushings thats the route to go for sure.

sorry for the late reply there are upper and lower a arms ive used rubber ones before on all 5 olds ive had and they would give too much deflection youll notice when you jack the cars up youd see the front tires pull in a little not with the polys I feel they even make the car susp feel softer did the sway bar too got them from autozone 80 bucks performace susp makes them
