So I ordered a set of poly bushing for the rear spring and it comes with 4 bushings and 4 washers. On my 84' it had 4 bushings and 4 washers with a center sleeve like an old school sway bar link. I can't find any install directions on this subject but do I just use a bushing on the top and bottom none in the middle and no sleeve? Just confused because one kit is said to do the whole rear not just one side.

Yes mine has the 4 bushing setup like the other 84'. I did install the poly's the same way but my issues is the bushing on the top side of the spring does not want to seat in the cup. This is while the car is on the lift hanging it may seat itself on the ground. No poly bushing I have seen specify any certain years all say 84-96'. Dont know is I should chance the poly's or get factory rubber's. Wondering if it matters if I go the two per side like the latter years and when you do the longer lowering bolts they use one two as well.

Because of the angle or the cup dimension? Poly bushings can be shaped and they also cold flow quite a bit to conform/fit over time.
Rear spring bushing?
