Default HYPERFLEX HELLLLLLLP (rear only)

I'm working on the rear suspension and have it all in pieces polished and laid out already for bushings.. I tried all weekend to figure out the rear dog bones/control rods and have no clue which ones to use. I have the full hyper flex with black poly/ and the directions are soo generic that I'm lost. I tried all Saturday and most Sunday. Spent all Sunday night searching the forum for the answers but found nothing. Can anyone please give some advice and or tips on what goes on what for the hyper flex in the rear. Sorry I'm a NOOB

Sorry, I'd like to help but I have no clue what Hyperflex is. I can only assume it's a company that makes poly bushings. At this point, just go by pictures posted on the forum and trial and error. Maybe calling the company will help. Good luck.

Guess I don't understand the question. Remove old rubber bushings, slide in new bushings. Pretty obvious if they fit or not.

Maybe a pic would help

i have the whole hyperflex kit, there are about 7 individual bags of parts included. after that the parts for the dog bones are not easily identified. and the instructions are generic so i am lost.

i could just try them on and see how it goes but im afraid of improperly installing

IIRC the large bore mounts on the hub end..........it's been several years though. You should be OK, if they fit they're good.

Every bushing has a part # cast into it. The instruction sheet lists the part # for each location.
Do you need a scan ?
