bushings and such
December 14, 2007 09:34PM

I am going through the front suspension...cleaning and replacing worn bits and one of the things I planned to replace was the strut top bushings. Is there any reason why powerflex poly strut top bushing are incompatible with the JVAB strut tops. I have been using stock rubber but thought it was time to upgrade. Of course with the JVAB strut tops do I really need poly?

Probably not.
And what are you using for the outer TCA?
How much?
Oh yeah?
I got "Heavy duty" rubber that cost way less!
Lasts fine
