Polyeurathane bushings???

Are they worth it? I was thinking of getting the bushings for the LCA's and Panhard Bar.

I don't know about the pan hard or the rear lca's but my whole front end is poly and it makes a HUGE difference. Will never use rubber bushings again. Just be sure to use ALOT of the silicone grease or it will squeak in a very short time.

I have poly bushings in everything.
I like it alot better than the rubber junk.
More vibrations with poly tranny mount and such but its not that bad.

to poly bushings
poly is your friend, except for a slightly rougher ride and some minor squeeks. poly doesnt deflect like rubber and it will last forever,

if you are going to spend $25+ on bushing for the phb or the lca's why not just save up for some good aftermarket units?

BMR sells the lca and phb for like $90 each i think...could probably do better in one of the group purchases that go on from time to time
