#32091 Its safe on all the bushings, its just the ride might be quite harsh

Id stick with new OEM bushings personally

#32092 yeah if it is a daily driver, the ride will be extremely harsh.

also, get the black ones instead of the red, the black have graphite in them are are less prone to squeak like the red ones.

#32173 how harsh is it? is it really that bumpy? and are things in the suspension that will break because of a hard bushing?

Im planning to combine OEM and the Poly. what parts are good to be on poly and what are good on OEM.

my ride are always on uneven surface, rough and bumpy/rocky roads would I really benefit from poly.

#32174 the poly bushings will work your shocks more, because your old rubber bushings used to absorb some of the movement. now all the movement will be making it to your shocks.

that other suspension components are upgraded? is everything else stock?
By mikbik
#32253 yes, all stock. but slowly planning to change coilovers, and LCA, upper control arms. (does anyone know where can I get a good brand and price)

but I really hate the (tug!!) sounds now on the rear trailing arm.
