Subject says it all. Of course the GM computers don't have "1LE" listed anymore. But there are 6 different control arms shows (3 types, one for each side).

FE7, F41, or FE2/FE4. Assuming that none of these are 1LE arms, I need to know which might have the heaviest bushings in them. Of course, GM's descriptions suck. Heavy Duty, Special ride and handling, and some other moronic wording that really doesn't do squat for figuring out which is which.

Thanks,

Ahh, that was helpful! Thanks....

I appears the "FE7" is the same number as the 1LE.

BTW Sam, GM has started substituting non-1LE parts under the 1LE part numbers. Even if you buy 1LE, you may not get 1LE. The part number tag will match, but if you check the part numbers molded into the bushings they will be the same as the standard parts.

This has definitely shown up with the PHR and rear LCAs. I don't know if you can still get real 1LE front LCAs or not.

You are welcome for the pointer, but Chuck (98_1LE) deserves the thanks.

He has worked for years compiling all that info ...

I wouldn't count on getting any 1LE parts from GM.
