If you mean the torque arm bushing at the front, there are 2 types. I don't know those numbers, but the difference is which way the "lips" on the torque arm face, towards the driveshaft or away from it. The cross section is shaped like a "W" on its side. That is how the bushing you need is identified.

Torque arms changed in 84 1/2 (had me very perplexed when I swapped out the T-5 from the hardtop to the T-top car and the mount didn't fit). You can order them from Jegs for like $8.
