Ya - I've got rear control arms and steering rack done. The steering
rack are Superflex and the control arms are Abbott. I would have
used Superflex for the control arms if I had the 'throw them into a
fire' idea to remove the old rubber from the mount clamps. I tried
cutting them out, to no avail. Anyway, I'm pleased with the results,
but not the price I had to pay for the 'Abbott' name that's cast into the
mount bracket. The poly bushes give a much tighter/precise feel
to the steering - I'm not sure whether it's the steering rack or control
arm bushes that are responsible because they were both changed
at the same time. They made no difference, as far as I can tell, in
ride quality, which was improved with Bilsteins and stock Aero
springs ('97). My vehicle is a '92, which originally had stiffer springs
than a '97 Aero.
