(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) are the poly graphite worth the extra $$ over the standard rubber ?

I'm still undecided whether or not the original rubber bushings had been vulcanized/cured seperately or as an assembly......
I'm leaning towards seperately since the rear trailing arm bushings would have to have had something to contain the rubber from flowing on the inside of the trailing arm during vulcanization...if this is true, new rubber bushings could be made. Anyone want to put in some money for making these? I'm guessing just a few hundred bucks for the molds and to have some made......cost for about 25-50 should be in the $5 to $7 range each last time I got something similar quoted |
