Though Zack's instructions state you can use the existing OEM bushings, has anybody installed them using polyurethane bushings? If so what auto parts store did you get them, and any comments?

Call Jerrry, tell him I sent you. Just nice to know.
You'll need the specs of the parts you want or would like to have put together.

Jay,

The OEM bushings are fine. IMO poly bushings might make the ride too stiff... don't need that.

also, with poly bushings, unless you have a way of easily lubing them, they will squeek

- JDThis was talked about before and was recommended by Mack that you use the OEM bushings due to that poly bushings will give you a regretable stiff ride that you don't want . I have the OEM bushings and the comfort ride is the same but the Handling has improved dramatically ... :up:
