Hi Dave,

I can answer for the 3.0s in that the rear suspension is Ford 
Cortina.  A few of the early Marcos used a DeDion independent rear as 
well.  That is about all I can tell you on the rear.  Bushings for 
the Cortina rear should be pretty available.  Try Dave Bean 
Engineering out of California.  If they don't have it, they should be 
able to refer you to someone who does.

Good luck,
Tad
