I ordered a set of front stabilizer bar poly end links from Spohn, and the site says they're from Energy Suspension Components. I just got the package today and it says Prothane Motion Control. Are these the same company? Any insight?

 

Nevermind. I ordered them through the Front Rebuild Kit page. Every component in the kit is Moog, but the end links are by Prothane. I can't read. Later.

 

i think all spohn sells is Prothane bushings

 

Energy Suspension and Prothane are different companies, but I believe the quality of either is comparable to the other.

 

Yeah I just got confused. The whole rebuild kit is Moog, and ES is some subsidiary of Moog I think. I just assumed they would be all Moog parts. The Prothane ones I got are pretty nice, so I'm not worried.

One thing I was wondering is, I've heard there's a difference between the black poly bushings and the other colors. Is there?

 

I dont think ES and Moog are affiliated, Moog is a part of Federal Mogul, as with Felpro, Speed Pro, and some others

 

OK, I saw somewhere that the black poly bushings are graphite-impregnated. Does this make a difference in anything?

 

Yeah, they won't squek like regular poly.
