I going to be replacing the suspension bushings on my 70 C20 soon. And I haven't quite decided on what to go with, Rubber or Polyurethane.

Anyone have pro/con experience with either type. I plan on driving simi-daily mixed in with some hauling and pulling. No off-roading, mainly streets and freeways. I really want to know if the ride is harsher or similar with the polys compared to the rubber. Cost does play a role, but not a determining factor.

Thanks for any input.
