Lightbulb Installing LCA

Just bought a set of BMR LCAs poly/rubber and I was wondering which end goes to the front. They are the non-adjs.

Re: Installing LCA

if you bought poly/rubber, the rubber bushing goes to the chassis and the poly goes to the rearend, zerks facing the ground
the point of that is to have less road noise and vibrations on the chassis end with the rubber bushing but still retaining some of the stiffness with the poly bushing at the rear

Re: Installing LCA

Rubber bushing to the chassis, as simple stated. And yes, it does make a difference.

Im thinking of getting me a set of BMR lca's and im going with the tubular ones. BTW there's two kinds..........poly/rubber and poly bushing what is the difference between the two? they're both tubulars. And how much do they usually run for? i see them for 109.00.

Re: Installing LCA

I paid 98.95 for the LCA's anbd 80.95 for a panhard rod[BMR's] from Thunderracing on one of their sales[that's 10% off]8/13/04..
Shipping was less than 13.00 and I had a few other small items in there too..
Watch the sponsors for sales, you can beat 109.00, that's for sure..
I think I saw 15% off recently also:

The difference is that the poly/rubber has a poly urethane bushing on one end and a rubber one on the other. The poly/poly has poly urethane on both ends which is stiffer but transmits more road nois and vibrations.
