The bushings on one of my drop links on the rear sway bar died today and the others don't look to good. I see the part on Pelicans site.
http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/smart/...-343-782-00.JPG My question is that these look like nylon and the one's on my car look like polyurethane are there multiple kinds of bushings that are available, and if so from where? Thanks Picture of part http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-5819-1151983871.jpg |

Nylon is such a PITA to install, I question the possibility of successfully installing polyurethane.

I don't mind nylon, but it just looks like poly so I wanted to keep the upgrade if possible. Or should I just go Nylon regardless of what the PO has in there

Thank's guys. Aaron I'll order the parts, drink your six pack and use the shipping cost for more BEER! Since it looks and sounds like a PITA (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)
