  • hard rubber or poly bushings?

    How's it goin y'all??? I plan on buying the UMI lca/panhard bar combo from LMPerformance.com this week, and I wanted to get hard rubber bushings in each. My question is this, Suspension Techniques has a 35mm front sway bar that I want and it has poly bushings on its end links. Should I get hard rubber or just stay with the poly. If I stay with the poly, will there be any bind issues, or is that just a problem with poly lca bushings??? Thanks. If this is a stupid question let me know, I've never done any suspension on cars only trucks.

      If its a daily driver take the hard rubber,poly sqeaks over time,plus it doesn't wear as well.

        My poly suspension doesn't squeak and thats from tub. K , upper/lower A arms and TQ arm to LCA's panhardrod,tans mount and sway bars. Just grease them twice a year like rubber and they will last a lifetime, some of mine are 11 years old. Rubber will over time crack and start to fall apart.
