Re: Rear suspension; window cranks

Don't know if the window cranks are still available aftermarket.  They should be, as that was the same for the two or four door, and if not that year, it's probably pretty universal.

As far as getting ones from someone else, probably will have the same issue.

I'd recommend trying a good all purpose cleaner, clean them, and then try a good high quality plastic trim restorer type of product.  They could be brought back to life perhaps.

I just got my headliner replaced and for the first time in years my interior looks really nice everywhere. It had been great up to your head, but the headliner was trashed. Dropped it off later today to have the leaking header flex pipe replaced, then I'll give it a tune-up. 
Anyone have a pair of window cranks that haven't turned white-ish? This is the only thing in the interior that bugs me now. 

There's a lumber rumble (old Chrysler term) from the rear suspension, telling me that the rear strut mounts could use replacement. That and a high-frequency jiggle from the rear that suggests something is binding, made me consider also replacing all the bushings, since it's all 25 years and 220k old. Since I have far better things o do with my time (and lots of other car projects I'd rather do) than cut and burn out old bushings and press in new ones, this means buying new control arms from RockAuto. Considering that the rear LCA bolts have never been touched in the life of the car, what kind of nightmare can I expect getting them out? The car is surprisingly pretty much rust-free but does look midwestern down there. I'm hoping it's just a matter for a lot of Kroil, an impact gun, big cheater bar, and patience.
