you agreed with that advice and threw a few insults in for good measure.


I pasted what I typed to Jim in a personal email that evening without seeing your "advice." If by insults you mean I "questioned" if you had seen these bushings or, I offered a different opinion than yours... OK.

your an ass


Now you're down to name calling. That's not good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Rich you first response was.

QUOTE
My first piece of advice would be to bin them


You trashed Eric with your first sentence in your first response. You could of said so many other things but you chose to slap someone in the face first.

Rich, your not lookin good here. I know you dont care about my opinion though.

I did not know that Eric made these bushings.
I knew that Jim asked what to do with his plastic bushings.
I offered advice.
My opinion, remove them and get a good setup that will last a long time, not squeak, and is hard.

No slap at Eric personally, its a product.

Eric, did your parent raise you to be like this?
Would you have the courage to talk to someone face to face like this?
I doubt it on both counts.

Like what Rich? I've simply replied to every slam you've thrown my way and every slam that you dished out about a bushing that you've never even held in your hand. If you mean, did my parents raise me to stick up for myself and right what is clearly wrong; yes, my parents raised me like this.

You are commenting on a totally different bushing and you can't come to terms with that and say you were mistaken. Did your parents raise you to be like that?

QUOTE

Like what Rich? You know what country we live in. I can't stand up to you in a public forum and defend what I consider a really good product? I can't offer proper advice to Jim? I surely would talk to someone, you, anyone "face-to-face" about it. Why wouldn't I? I believe in what I sell. You have no experience with it. You bag it. I WILL STAND UP TO YOU. Make sense?

Would you walk up to my face and say "we don't need to bow and obey you" -or- "get over yourself" when I simply offered another (my) opinion on 70D Poly bushings? Would you call me an ass to my face for simply trying to point out that you are talking about two different bushings that are "Worlds" apart?

Now... that's something I doubt, on "all" counts.

Repeat after me Rich:

"I have no experience with these harder 70D Poly bushings. It would be best if I stopped now.", "I have no experience with these harder 70D Poly bushings. It would be best if I stopped now.", "I have no experience with these harder 70D Poly bushings. It would be best if I stopped now."

I'll post here as well so others can get a straight answer.

Ok, so my answer was not straight...grease fittings and grooves.
Your was...

QUOTE

Frankly, I think (know) you're talking out of your ass.

Thanx for that...they are plastic squeaky bushings.
Nice way to talk though.

QUOTE

They're not plastic

Yes they are...its a fact.

QUOTE

I get it! I'm not allowed to clear up misconceptions you spread about a quality product I sell. Bully.

I was responding to a clear question about plastic bushings...squeaky plastic bushings.

QUOTE

Cry me a river. You tell someone to throw the bushings I sold them out. I pretty much prove you don't know WTF you're talking about.

Except that they are plastic.
They squeak.


QUOTE

Keep it up.

What will happen???
Shall I be smacked?

I've got Rollers on one car and Elephants on the other. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

The Elephants replaced the 94D soft poly because they were/are as bad as mentioned herein.

The point I've made throughout is; there's nothing wrong with the 70D hard poly if you install them properly. They don't squeak. You just have to know what you're doing. They are extremely hard, the suspension will glide up and down like bronze or rollers and they'll last a long, long time without the wear of the softer Polys. People who confuse them with 94D and don't know how to install them give them a bad rap. Something I'm attempting to correct.

I was going to put the hard Poly's on my 914 with no remorse (looking forward to it actually) until Mark came back out with the rollers... I simply wanted to try them and, Mark's making them at a much better price than the Shine rollers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
