Spherical Control Arm Bushings

It's been ages since we've actually posted up something new so here goes...

Anyone who's had our Polyurethane CABs know one thing: They're prone to fail. Polyurethane in any combination with the CABs doesn't work. This is something that's evident only over long term, (1 year or so, sometimes less)... Basically, this left a lot of ppl with a useless product and a sour taste in their mouth. Regardless, we offered free swaps to anyone who wanted a new pair, but ultimately that's pretty much in vane because they'll only get another year outta the new pair and be in the same boat again... So the only way out of this vicious cycle is switch back to stock or


>>>> Spherical Bushings, Solid, no P.U.


Anyone interested in such a product? We'll try to keep pricing the same as the existing bushings. Also, if you currently have our old bushings, we're going to offer a discount on these new ones, regardless if you have a receipt or not.

OK, I have the torque damper and it doesn't really do **** at the track. I refuse to get solid tranny mounts or engine mounts because I don't like the vibes at all, even after it's broken in. How much will this help with hop?Any idea?

im interested, however for street use a spherical rod end must have a rubber dust boot on it. without a way to keep the grit out they will be binding up and worn out faster than the urethane CABs.

id love it if you offer a trade in. i still have a set of junk urethane ones from you that i took out about 6 months after they were installed.

Right, We'd have to over come this issue with the design itself. A sealed heim is the only thing that will work.

It seems as though there's a great deal of interest in a matter of one hour. I'll see what we can come up with in the next couple of days. (pricing, design and more information)
