Hi to all, member for some time, never posted.
This may have been discussed previously so please forgive me if is a second go around.
I went to replace my LBJ on the passenger’s side, pressed the old out, went to rock auto and ordered K6445. It came and as I pushed it up into the LCA, it slid thru until the collar hit the control arm. Smaller diameter than the old and can’t find the correct size.
Weird thing is, I ordered a kit on eBay in 2014 and replaced those LBJs and they pressed in just fine. The listing and seller are not on eBay anymore.
So has anyone run into this issue and found the explanation/solution?
Side note: I’ve tried 6445, 6117, 6029, 9362 and potentially a couple others. The 6029 is from a 2500 in 87. The thought being it’s a mid-year body style change, so maybe leftover parts from 87 were out on my 88.
Digital calipers say real close to 59mm. Every one I’ve tried is too small. Even tried the G10 application.
Help help help lol. Sorry for the book, thanks in advance
