need help with strut rod bushings

Same here, I as just teasing about wanting 'a video and a how-to/FAQ for both front and rear' ;) I should have added a smilie of some kind on the end.
 
Its just to many variables in the 'bushing hell' as I like to call it. I want / need to replace everything, but how to figure out what good or bad aftermarket / OEM, install tricks etc. is enough to make a man go crazy. And I know several more people are needing to do these upgrades. Hell I doubt anyone really has replaced a majority of front suspension without some high levels of trial n' error and frustration.
 
i got everything new...I think i could have left the inner tie rods and the frame srbings, but at least its all done now. I used oem srbings, Moog upper and lower control arms and tie rods. I did one side at a time and referenced the oposite, but still had some confusion. Those srbings are just no fun. The rest of it was pretty easy other than being rusted.
 
Just thought i would show these, cost a lot less to make than to buy new ones from ford

you should have made some for me before i put mine together!
 
They look like they work to me. Is the inside diameter the same as the thin sleeve?

Either way, how much for a set?:)
 
not sure yet, ill have to ask the guy at work how much he would charge to do it on his own time, he just threw a set together for me cause i didn't want to pay ford anything, especially not 260 bucks to replace both of them
