My '95 New Yorker has a bad bushing on what appears to be the strut rod. This rod is about 3/4" in diameter and is mounted horizontally to the frame just forward of the front wheel on about 3" diameter rubber bushings and to the lower control arm with about 2" diameter rubber bushings. The rod has a slight bend in it as well. I have a bad rubber bushing at the front drivers side that needs to be replaced. The rubber bushing material is on both sides of the frame metal and the assembly has large steel washers to provide "squish" to the rubber bushings. I am trying to find the correct bushing at the parts store and I want to make sure I am asking for the right part. Is this called the strut rod or something else? Anyone have a diagram of the front suspension I could use to verify this?

Thanks to all that reply.

 

Turns out I was right. I found a diagram online at makeitchryslerparts.com that showed the strut rod etc. Now just a quikc trip to the auto parts store and I'm good to go.
