In Reply to: Powerflex TRAILING ARM BUSHINGS, saabsince 93b , Wed, 15 Aug 2012 10:49:43

got lots of feedback that my ride would be rougher with the polys. I am hoping to make the ride smoother, not rougher. I know the polys will perform better regarding a stiffer performance ride but here in south Florida, we primarily go flat and straight and fast. I want a smooth ride. already enough rattling noises around the cabin with the rubber bushings.

I been debating this for over a year now. now I started getting cupping on a tire that was on my LH rear and before I pay for an alignment that might not work, figured it's just time to finally replace the control arm and stay-hub bushings. only 190k on the originals! again, the roads are very friendly down here.

but...feel free to talk me into the polys! I'd rather not have to pull the trailing arm off. and I figure I could make a tool for the stay-hub bushings (or get the Rose). but then...I still wouldn't get to use my press I bought at HF over a year ago. maybe that's a good thing though.
