[Wack j3studio Question #63] Why No Rubber Suspension Bushings?

Subject: [Wack j3studio Question #63] Why No Rubber Suspension Bushings?
by j3studio on 2017/9/28 23:30:42

Some visual inspection and some assumptions lead me to believe that, at 78,000 miles, most of the rubber suspension bushings on my 1985 need to be replaced. There are replacements that are easily available, but they are urethane.

Multiple sources have advised me that urethane bushings ride firmer. I have heard from two folks that it would make my 1985 Z51 ride like a 1984 Z51—not the direction I'm looking for. There's also some risk of taking a point deduction in judging, but that isn't my primary concern.

So the question is: why doesn't anybody sell rubber bushings? Is there somewhere I'm not thinking of looking that I should?
