Default New moog upper control arm shaft bushings
Moog part number K7084 is what i ordered/have
the inner sleeve appears to be loose on the shaft.
My question is, is this the wrong part or will it squeeze tight when it's installed?1990 dodge dakota 4x4 sport vert restoration for a friend and its been a pain in the royal dick due to no parts availability and online ordering is a nightmare because everybody claims to have them until you go the the checkout page.

It's supposed to.

Don't ask me, though - I went with ES Poly bushings on my 2WD.

Yup, those are the right ones. Been on my '93 since I did the frame replacement a few years ago. Slick looking resto you got going there.

finding parts is easy. You just got to be willing to drive. And look a lot.

They will press into the arms; they float on the shafts, so the control arm can pivot.
