I purchased mine from Tasca. Beware of aftermarket front control arms.
The replacements from Ford are much beefier than the OEM ones.
This takes into account 7 more years of police cars and improving the product. PLus you get new ball joints with them.

No ball joints in the rear control arms, just bushings.

Sorry, I thought is was front.
I would upgrade then. My rear bushing fell apart.
It caused my differential to shift, hence I had to completely rebuild it.
That is why I replaced with Sparta control arms. Worth the money.

I am only looking to replace the rear control arm bushings upper & lower. Because we cannot purchase bushings alone. I have purchased the lower control arms from Rock Auto. Becuase they do not sell rear uppers I am looking for best source & price on upper control arms ?

Why not buy some performance ones, like Metco or the ones Sparta sells? They make a world of handling difference over the stock stamped pieces.

I was fortunate back in the earlier days---I got the mule from the guys who started a bunch of stuff-- Mack and Zack--who created some good stuff--steel tubular arms--still on mine today--

I have the Z&M rear control arms. I just want to install new bushing in them. They have 120.000 miles on them. They are in need of replacement. We can't buy replacement bushings. So I am looking to buy OEM remove bushings & install them in my Z & M control arms.

Gotcha, didn't know you had Z&M CAs already. I have them as well and still using the stock 217k mile bushings. lol
I'll be getting another set of control arms as I need to have Z's refinished since the coating has flaked off.

Does ENS not make bushing kits for the Marauders?

Doesn't look like they do.
Will Mustang bushings work?

^^^ You'd have to get a measurement and see. I can't believe ENS doesn't make any bushing kits for you guys yet they make them for '92-'95 CV/MGM/LTC lol.
I have spherical bushings on the frame side of my rear UCAs, ENS on the housing side. Lower rears are boxed with full ENS treatment.
