Toby...
 
Someone already spec'ed out a few of those bushing in polyurethane a while
back if I recall correctly...  Does anyone recall who that was?

John - I have completed the bushings in urethane for the front sway 
bar attachments - to the frame crumple tubes and to the lower control 
arms.  In the words of a local owner who just installed a set - "oh 
what a difference!"  I have also been developing an engineering 
contact at a large suspension bushing company who has said that he 
will work with me on getting bushings that can be easily made to work 
in our application for the other bushing locations.  The big problem 
is always getting enough volume of business in order to attract the 
attention of the larger manufacturers, and get decent pricing from 
them so that people will be able to afford the upgrades.  I have 
talked to smaller places, and they just don't want to be bothered 
with bushings that they would have to tool up for.
