Lolololol. Never heard that one before.You missed your true calling Ira. You would have made an great proctologist!
Since this a Grand Tour Corvette for ride and comfort Moog Brand OEM replacement bushings may make logical sense.Working on the tubular control arms. They are generic Chevy. Apparently all you have to do is swap the lower ones from side. That means flipping the cross shaft and the sway bar brackets

I think they used that exact word: annoying.LOL, looks like dad is just being annoying !
Did you buy new control arms, if not they sure look clean?

They should last 20 years.
I think the best compromise of handling comfort is Energy Suspension bushings.
The Black bushings squeak the least.
Sometimes a Real sticky assembly grease is supplied. Like glue on Your skin.
Or you buy a small tub of that sticky white grease.
Made for OEM control arms.
Aftermarket control arms you get what you pay for.
Not worth it me.
Like Street and drag myself.
Delron Teflon Plastic by Dupont.
Got imitations or something ..not sure.
Delron does not crack.
You Want a World Class T-5. It will hold up to a moderate Powered Chevy SB V8.Well, this is all experimental. I might love it... I might hate it or anything in between. What I do know is that I want more caster and the stock uppper cross shafts are too flimsy to undergo any machining. These cross shafts are beefy. I plan to slot the uppers by an undetermined amount to move from 2 degrees of caster (C3 Corvette OEM limit) to 5 or 7 degrees.
If I put in that T5 transmission to give me the comfort of overdrive, that defeats the purpose if you have to be super vigilant with floaty tracking.
You fixed the one cable, what is stopping you from fixing the others? What would be the cost for the replacement?The ones that did work did with varying brilliance.
