Replacing 63-82 Corvette Leaf Spring BUSHINGS

For the most part, C2 and C3 Corvettes share identical frames (for the most part), and this video may benefit those needing to replace the leaf spring bushings. The job is not difficult, per se, but having a portable lift made my work much easier. It can also be done with a floor jack and jack stands. The bushings on my 1976 Corvette had disintegrated, and that's not uncommon with polyurethane (or poly, for short). Rubber bushings deform over time but don't crumble like their poly counterparts. I did use the rubber bushings I had recently removed from my 81 Corvette since they were in acceptable condition, but this was mostly a stopgap measure as I intend to completely remove the rear suspension on my 76 Vette so I can rebuild the trailing arms, the half-shafts, and much more. I hope you find the video helpful if you need to replace your leaf spring link bushings.
