I got my BMR chrome-moly, poly/rubber lca's today. I hope to install them friday, but before i do, I have a few questions that I hope can be answered. I've heard that people put the rubber bushing on the car side of the LCA. others have put the rubber on the axle side. which is better? I'd assume that axle side rubber would allow less bind in cornering, but car side rubber would transmit less road noise. for performance, I'd rather get less bind and go rubber on the axle side. do any of you agree? it doesn't say which side to put the rubber on in the install instructions BMR sent w/ the lca's. I'd also like to know what kind of lube you guys used to lube up the bushings, and what kind of lube guns, and where to get both, if my dad or firends don't have them already.

<blockquote>quote:</font><hr>From BMRFabrication.com:
Boxed, tubular, and adjustable control arms are all available with a rubber/polyurethane bushing combination. The rubber bushings have a higher than stock durometer rating and are smaller in diameter to minimize deflection yet offer an alternative to stiffer polyurethane bushings. By placing the polyurethane bushing on the axle side and the rubber bushing on the frame side you can now have the best of both worlds!<hr></blockquote>~Derrick <a href=\"http://www.appstate.edu/~do54457/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>My Webpage</i></a><br /><b>\'96 3.8L V6 M5 Firebird Y87</b> | <b>162.8 RWHP</b> / <b>196.7 RWTQ</b> <br /><b>•</b> SLP CAI <b>•</b> <a href=\"http://tech.firebirdv6.com/y87.html\" target=\"_blank\"><b>Y87</b> Package</a> - 3.23s <b>•</b> 180º thermo w/ fan switch <b>•</b> TB spacer from DEE<br />1991 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4x4
