I am trying to find some reasonably priced rubber suspension bushing. I do not really want the stiffness of the poly ones, but they are so much cheaper than the only rubber ones I found. Any thoughts?

Power flex bushings. The plastic transmits road noise like rubber , but works like a bushing.

Polys are harder, but we use a special cure process to harden the Eurathanes we use, so they run about 85+ duro.

Does anyone have squeaking problems using the poly control arm bushings?

Yes! I had to drill and tap and insert some grease Zerks and fill the tube.

Do you have to regrease them often to keep them from squeaking? Someone needs to make cheaper rubber replacements for the daily drivers.
