Default bushings for stock upper A arm

Does anyone make a delrin or free floating typer bushing to replace the rubber one in the stock upper A arm? Car is not lowered and is set up for drag racing.

Sam Strano had (or maybe still does on occasion) custom offset Delrin replacements, otherwise, Global West has some of their "Del-A-Lum" ones that were OE replacements (but that was a few years ago).

You can try to call both to see what's around.

Energy Suspension also makes a poly bushing for the upper a-arm.

if you compare a stock upper arm and a good tubular.......you will NOT put the stock back on........its that flimsy........get you a good upper arm and the bushing of your choice
