Posted by: kevgentile Apr 13 2006, 08:21 PM

car had weltsheister poly-graphite bushings front and rear. then it was a street/track car with 15x7's, now dedicated track car with 10's and 12's. have not had much experience with other bushing's so would like to know who is using what for their race 914. thanks

I know what my typical reply is, but I dont think Mike wants to sell anymore of them. So.. I have to say the Elephant racing poly bronze setup is the next best thing to a complete roller bearing setup. I spent this past weekend with Chuck at a POC event (Chuck owns Elephant racing) and watched several cars from behind (until I passed them..LOL) It works well. Check into it.

thanks brad, i was just on elephant's web site. their poly-bronze set-up looks like it is an improvement over anything other then a roller bearing set-up. i would love to do the roller bearing, need to look into it.
