A local vendor out of atlanta, Top Speed, has offered to order a crap load of bushings for our cars.....since you can only get them from Australia (for us non-OZ folks).

 

Here's the listing:

The front control arm kit retails for $50, and the rear trailing arm kit for $60. We might or might not get a better deal...however, they are willing to go thru the trouble and order them and get them here within a month (which is FAST considereing normally it takes about 3 months to get something like this) and not charge us extra freight. To get them within 3~5 days it would cost about $75. The vendor and I have talked and he should be posting in here as soon as he can get a full price list.

 

Either way, with or with out other USMB orders, I will be buying some bushings and I will not be ordering extra to "stock" as I dont have the capital to be able to do so.

 

How many people do we have that would be 100% seriously interested in buying bushings at this time?

I need a complete set, Front control, rear trails, strut rod, front and rear sway bar sets. I did mail one of the vendors, not sure if it's the same one, I'll let you know if I get a response. I need these ASAP and will happily pay the 3-5 day freight.

Stupid question:

 

Do any of these reduce vibration transfer from the road? If so, which ones and which bring down the most? --E

 

Yeah that was stupid. :lol: Since I'm stupid, I don't know so I guess that evens it out. :rolleyes: J/K

 

If they are firmer bushings than your stock bushings you ar replacing, then you will feel MORE vibration from the road. The bright side of this is your car's response to your input (steering, turning, etc) should be quicker and give you more feedback.

 

If they are factory type softness, than you should feel less vibration from the road IF the bushing(s) you replace are worn/bad. You should still experience a quicker response in the way your car handles than the worn/bad bushings you replace.
