Power flex bushings. The plastic transmits road noise like rubber , but works like a bushing.

Polys are harder, but we use a special cure process to harden the Eurathanes we use, so they run about 85+ duro.

Does anyone have squeaking problems using the poly control arm bushings?

Do you have to regrease them often to keep them from squeaking? Someone needs to make cheaper rubber replacements for the daily drivers.

I had to regrease once about a week later, but its been good for about7 months (about 9000 miles
