- anyone out there with some experience? preferably someone who did a install himself. and has driven some cars to compare. - is the install really that hard? - what about dirt getting into the bearings? - change of effective springrate due to not fighting sticky rubber bushings anymore? - got pics? i still got my set (rears) in the box, they'll be going on the new trailing arms ...

I went with the poly/bronze as they are $100 cheaper and Mueller was out of roller bearings when I wanted some.
I still need to do the rears so maybe if Mueller does another run for the BBS store???? |
