    when looking under my '87 gt for the source of a clunking noise when i went over bumps I noticed the front right control arm bushing was non-existent. Went to pick and pull hoping to find a decent one, and all celica's seem to leak in the same spot, obliterating that bushing. Ordered an aftermarket one in and got it yesterday, Falcon Suspension part #CA386. The front shaft is fine, however the shaft on the rear of the control arm is a little smaller, so it has a good amount of play. I have found no other sources for a control arm. Any ideas as to how I can make this work? Maybe different years have a different size shaft that goes into the bushing, or a place where i could find a sleeve to make it work. Thanks for any ideas!
