 I just did this on my '59 Imp.  Your '60 would be the same.
KG4507 on the front and KG5511 on the rear.   The front ones have a
metal collar that the bottom bolt goes through.  This collar is a little
wide and won't fit in the bottom arm.  I used the dremel tool with an
abrasive cut off blade and removed a little bit from each side and then
it fit right in there.  Just don't get it to hot and mess up the rubber
bushing.  All in all a very easy job.

I  haven't put the back ones in yet but they look like a bolt in fit.

I got them from HYPERLINK "http://www.coximport.com"www.coximport.com
and was satisfied with the service.  $37.98ea from them.

             Steve B.
