Gents,
I will be re assembling my front rebuilt suspension and am trying to decide on whether I am going to use a Polygraphite bushing or Weltmiester Rubber ones. I was told by one guru to stick with the rubber for ride purposes. It is going to be a V8 weekend driver and I don't plan on putting on much mileage on the car during the year (i.e. Not much wear). Any input is appreciated. Note: if I use the Polygraphite my mechanic says he can set them up so they can be easily lubricated. Thanks for any input.
I recomend Elephant Racing rubber bushings. Expensive, but worth it...IMHO!
NFN, but I would look at the Rebel Racing Bushings. I'm running them front and rear and my NVH and ride is great, comparable with my E36 M3. I went with them because I diddnt trust my ability to align the rubber bushings properly and diddnt have a press, and the local shop was going to charge $250 labor to setup my front A arm bushings. I still had to supply the bushings (elephant) so at that cost I started considering the alternatives and did it all myself. I was nervous about it producing a harsh feeling, but is not the case at all. VERY happy with these. **The guy who did my alignment was very impressed with the ride quality and responsiveness of the suspension.

Thank you
One more vote for the Elephant rubber bushings. You can buy the set without the tools and enough people here have them to borrow. I set mine up using the angle finder on my iPhone. It worked perfectly, you just follow the directions in their on-line how-to video. Go watch it, even if you aren't buying their product, it will familiarize you witht the process. I am very happy with the rubber.
I also highly recommend Rebel Racing products too, as I have their coil-over kit on Bilsteins on the rear of my car.
