lower control arms

I'm getting my LCAs finally. They will be tubular and custom made.

What kind of bushings do I want? Poly? Rubber/poly combo?

I've got lowering springs, sfcs, relocation brackets. Will have a strut tower brace shortly. Car is setup to handle pretty well I guess. More suspension mods than go fast mods.

Basically what I'm getting at is that I don't care about the best ETs possible. I will take the car to the strip, but I want more than just a drag car. I do plan on auto xing it in the future.

I'm guessing poly/rubber combo would be the best. I'm not too sure?

Poly would be stiffer and you'll get a harsher ride...poly rubber will last longer and will save your car from creaks and sqeeks...I'd go poly rubber..check out some of my k-member pics in my sig....I'll try and get some tubular upper and lwoer a-arms in there soon...but if your gonna do it, do it all the way....if your gonna make your own LCA's, make em adjustable and cro-moly...save some weight
