The top is bolted on and you cannot tell from the outside. I'll
remove it tomorrow and let you know.
I don't have the old bushings as they were dust when I took the Z bar apart.
I bought the ones mustangs unlimited has and they were all too small. The
rod bushings and the bar mount bushings. I've got some part numbers but
haven't been willing to order some off a ramdon website hoping they're right
just yet.
