I had polybronze bushings in my last 914-6. Despite having a zerk fittings in the trailing arms, I still occasionally got squeaks. For my '71, I went with Elephant Racing rubber bushings all-around and am very satisfied; cars rides nice. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Anyone using the RSR/Rebel Racing bushings?

I'm using them and really like them. My opinion on ride quality may be different than others, but I like a non-binding, low maintenance bushing like teflon. The rear bushing is by design collinear. When you remove the spring, you can move the swing arm through it's arc with 1 finger. I also run their front bushings with self leveling washers for the same reason.

I beat the hell out of these and they are still good as new.



I have the RSR's in front and ride is great (street car only) and have been thinking about installing the RSRs in the rear, too.
