bushings
Does anyone have the specs for all of the FD bushings. I want to order the bushings from energy suspension (they don't make an FD kit) and others I will get from other companies that sell pillow ball bushings and what not.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Why don't you get one of the kits already being produced for our car? Search for "SuperPro" bushings which are polyeurethane I believe and "LubeGroove" which are made of Delrin. Mazdaspeed always makes stiffer rubber replacement bushings which are pretty pricey, and Unobtainable was a Delrin or nylon kit being made that is no longer available. The only pillowballs that aren't super expensive are Mazda OEM parts.
I am attempting to be cheap. The SuperPro are around $600 and the Lube and Groove is about $500. Energy Suspension bushings are typically $100-$120 for a set so it stands to reason that I can custom order the sizes I need for significantly less than what those vendors are selling their kits for. Also, I am not going to replace all of my bushings now, just the ones that are suspect.

If you are going to be tearing into your suspension, might as well spend then extra time to do them all. except for the ball joints. you have to replace a-arms for those.
Not exactly in everyone's budget. Get the dust covers replaced and move on.
