yea i down shift also but sometimes it doesntwork
i replaced nothing exept the clutch so .....where do they go? conected to the frame? or ....????

Yes it connects to the frame with two bolts{bracket} . If you look at the celendrical part "of the equalizer bar/ Z bar that is where the bushings go ( inside of it ) The felt is large and can be seen very easily at the ends/exterior portion of bar( if you dont see it it aint there) The equalizer bar is supported via the" pivot" that screws into the block and the bracket that is mounted to the frame.
Yes the "Z bar"(equalizerbar) is correct and not bent, trust me on this one. Unless your Charles Atlas or it's been in a nasty reck The chances of being bent are slim as the connecting parts are the weakest links. The Rebuild kit is only about $15.00 remember to lube it very well. Remember to also check the release rod assembly and the clutch equalizer rod for free play or wear at the friction points(conections) as they are easily worn after 30 years of use.

Maby Im a little late on this but...When the clutch pedel is pressed and released ( do this slow and smooth while the car is turned off ) do you feel any movement other what should be there? ie. side to side play or a "clunk " in the pedel?

Ill try and send a better pic . let me know what you find.
