Re: Polyurethane Bushings/ Mounts

x2 on the Amazon comment. I bought my energy suspension bushings for my leaf springs there recently, saved a ton of money.
I did energy suspension polyurethane cab mounts on a truck I built years ago. Had them in for two weeks and hated them! It was like having metal to metal. Truck rode like a train. When I was removing them to put stock rubber replacements in, I saw one was already split. New rubber gave the truck the ride and handling it was supposed to have, felt like new. After all, they are supposed to be cushions. I didnt even want to use it for my new leaf springs, but its all that was available for aftermarket springs. I definitely wouldn't do it again on body mounts, in fact I'm surprised so many people here like them.
