Re: Trailing arm bushings. Poly or Rubber?

I put poly in mine. Not the easiest to install. Had to chamfer the corner of the bushing to get it started, then used a big clamp to press them in. But I doubt if I will live long enough to have to replace them.

I put the poly bushings from www.p-s-t.com in my chassis.

The toughest part was heating up the old rubber bushings to remove them. Installation was cake
