Title: convertible top frame rebuild kit with bushings?
Post by: gsteele on February 20, 2025, 01:40:32 AM

I'm about to disassemble my convertible top frame for my 68 mustang and I can't seem to find anything available for replacing and refurbishing the bushings.

I've checked all of the usual places, but can't find anything. Any ideas? Thanks!

The plastic bushings are available in aftermarket or Ford sold them over the counter. 


This might have the info needed:
