I can tell I am quickly getting old, the poly bushings in my car squeak while I drive the car which is driving me nuts. I had a shop pull them out and grease them inside and out, worked for a couple days then the noise was back.
Any choices other than rubber, or is the rubber a good alternative? |

They come from the same company that supplies Elephant Racing. Not as pricey as Elephant. Installing the rears is quite a chore. I will be posting a thread with the tools I made to install them. 914 Rubber front bushing are good. I would not use Uro fronts again. Had too man problems with them. @76-914 |
