Guys,
Just realized in my rush to post these I forgot to mention that the shock mounting bolt is 1/2 inch not the stock size 12mm. The 1/2 inch bolt is the eyelet size of most after market performance shocks that use uniball lower mount. If you have a shock with the stock size sleeve in the bushing, it can easily be drilled out with a 1/2 inch bit. The amount of material that needs to be removed is minimal and will not affect strength of the sleeve.
Also, completely forgot about the edge of bushing getting damaged when I broke a wheel at daytona last year. The control arm is undamaged, the bushing face is just beat up. Here are a few pics, let me know what you think.
Am selling these as I have upgraded to the control arms with rod ends instead of bushings. No intention to miss lead or misrepresent just simply was not paying close enough attention to my listing. sorry for any confusion I may have caused...any one still interested with slammed still having first dibs.

I'm interested but curious about the the lower control arm. Maybe it's just the angle of the pictures but it looks like its slightly bent. Do all of the measurements from the one side match up with the one that hit the ground? How much time are on them?

It is just the angle that they are sitting at they are perfectly straight. I broke the wheel but the outer support structure of the wheel was intact tire was on the ground essentially comma I lost a caliper mounting bolts and machine the wheel until it broke when it broke it trimmed the edge of the bushing. 4 race weekend on the control arms. Maybe 10 hours total time. The lowers are a bit pitted on the front edge but they are clean. I will polish them up a bit for you and take a few more pictures
