Re: Where is a good place to buy the poly bushings?

I'm getting mine at the local Autozone. I have the 34/24 combo and they have to order them in, but its almost always next day so its not a long wait.

Energy Suspension in red. I'd post the link, but their site is down for some reason. The list of parts I have here says they were $14 for the fronts and $34 for the rears. The price for your fronts should be about the same as for mine, but I don't have the P/N here. Rear P/N I have written down is 3.5147R

People at Advance get this scared look when you mention polyurathane. I think I got my fronts at Spohn and my rears at Napa.

sooo true. I got mine at advance just cause its easiest to get to in tampa and on my way to the garage. When i mentioned poly they had no clue what i was talking about, it took me about 5 mins to explain it and find in their computer what i needed, then when i tried to get endlinks they had no idea what i was talking about, apparently they list them as like body braces or something weird.

They couldn't get them in sizes I wanted even when they managed to search. Although, AutoZone seems to have a nice selection of poly bushings.
