OK folks, any suggestions on what I can do to fix this issue.
The bolt seems to be as tight as it can get and wont budge in either direction. It's causing some major rear sway issues while driving.
*sorry about the huge image in advance*

The moog bushIngs are for the body side of the control arm. The axle side is nla. You will have to make or modify something.
 






Great.
TY for the reply.
 






As it stands I have yet to find any form of bushings for the rear.
At this point I'm thinking of getting some over sized washers and just "filling in the gaps".
The fun part is going to be breaking the nut loose with out snapping the bolt.
If I succeed in doing so I will post pictures.
 






Mine is doing the exact same thing. I'm going to buy an adjustable Panhard bar and use window weld to recreate the bushings in polyurethane.
 






If you look at my posting about me buying a 2" lift for my Aerostar I posted a link to a suspension company in California. The seam to sell everything under the sun and might have a replacement shim/ bushing to cover your problem.
