As many of you know, I have a 4 link set up under my GTX. The urethane bushings that came with the set up are GARBAGE!! Every one of them are twisted fractured pieces of garbage, the car sounds like it is going to fall apart when I drive down the street.
Does anyone know of a quality busing that will last???
BTW, I only have 6000 miles on these bushings
 
I used some polys from pst in my Dart seem great so far.
 
Or convert it to teflon lined spherical rod ends and be done with it.
 
According to the folks at Ride Tech in the late 07-early08 time frame ( when I bought the 4 link from RMS) they had a bad supplier . This supplier used what THEY called "powder metal" for the sleeve. They resolved that issue and have not had a problem since. They are sending me FREE replacements!!
 
Good to hear, good customer service.
 
Got my poly bushings from Just Suspension, 7,000 + miles and still going strong.
 
Don't have a cow about polyurethane bushings falling apart, it's as natural as a sunrise. If you don't like the automotive selection, there are a bunch of skateboard truck bushings that should be directly interchangeable.

Rubber is old fashioned and mushy but lasts.
