Which front bushings should I use to replace the rubber ones. Forget Mike M's needle bearings for now. I use the car for street and autoxing. Seems to be a few choices out there but I thought I'd ask here first.

I got a stock (early) style front f/g bumper from Hank at GT Racing. His stuff is not cheap, but he very recently made new molds for the front and it's a clean part.
FWIW it dropped something like 25-30lbs off the front of the car ditching the 73 chrome bumper w/tits, foglights and grilles, and ABS LE spoiler. The f/g bumper and spoiler combined are only like 7lbs. The stock rubber bumper tops are surprisingly heavy. I even kept my horns because the car is still streetable and you never know when some SUV will try to lane-change right at ya. As you can see, I haven't painted 'em yet. (Curiously, the GT rear bumper came in black...significantly older part shipped from inventory I think). |
