LCA rubber vs polyurethane? & gen2 UCA?
      #1263009 - 04/21/12 01:50 AM

I have a bent Lower Control Arm. I have a replacement. I want polyurethane bushings. Is it available? Is it wise? While I'm there, Will gen2 UCA's give me any better droop? I cut my UCA snubbers by half. I'm considering wacky things like casting my own polyurethane bushings.

On the lower bushing's, Ive looked and could not find poly's for them. The Gen II arms have them available from a company out of Australia (Super Pro). There is a rep for them in the states that I dealt with called Outback Technologies. The uppers arms where nice cause the ball joints bolt in and even nicer since bushings are available for them now.
