Control Arm Bushings
 
I'm replacing the bushings on the front control arms (A-arms) of my '92 190E/2.3. The "bushing kit" that I received from PartsShop is supposed to do one side of the car, and contains two identical sets of bushings.
The problem is that the front and rear bushings on the control arm don't look identical.
So here's my question:
Are the front and rear bushings of the front control arm the same?

Thanks in advance,

Jeff Pierce

These bushings are for the 16V or the 300E & are heavier duty than the original! 2 of the bushings should have 3 raised areas & the other ones should have 2 raised areas. Match them up & you will have a much more solid front end!

M.B. Doc,

The front bushings look like they'll fit fine, but the rear bushings look smaller. Will these "upgrade" bushings fit on the rear?

Again, thanks for your help.
