I installed my new EST body bushing kit this weekend on my 1969 Suburban. And I'll I can say is, WWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!! I can't believe the difference it has made. Better ride, better handling and a lot of phantom noises just disappeared. That was the best $117 I have spent on this whole project. It was a fairly easy install, around 5 hrs (probably 3 hrs of goofing around

Re: Installed new Body Bushings
Looks nice! I want some now.
Ronellison: I think when they are cracked, falling apart, torn, and/or missing.

Re: Installed new Body Bushings
You can get them from Summit or Jegs. $110 + shipping and all the hardware is included. As far as squeaking, I haven't heard any yet.

Re: Installed new Body Bushings
After pulling apart my 67 last week I couldnt believe how bad mine where. I had already ordered up a set to put back in when it goes back together.

Re: Installed new Body Bushings
Great timing for this post.
![]() I'm about to put my 67 panel on the 4x4 burb frame and was just beginning the search for body mounts. You saved me the foot-work/research, thanks. |
