Anyone here with aftermarket suspension bushings?

Hello All,

Anyone here rocking aftermarket suspension bushings? Urethane/Rubber or Solid?

How often do the OEM's need to be changed?

Cheers,
Sam

i've been looking into this for the longest time; because my compression bushing and front lower inner control arm bushing are giving. sucks that no one makes em yet. i'm not really interested in the UCA bushings cuz imma wait for the spl ones and theyre solid.

and if anyone was wondering most of the g35/350z spl bushings except the spl knuckle monoball, i believe, do not fit. someone on the 370 forums tried the differential bushing iirc and it didnt work out.

someone on the 370z forum has a full front side delrin bushing swap. he was selling an extra set of oem uca bushings.

some good reads, even though you guys probably know it:

sorry for all the random thoughts. was too lazy to piece them for unity and cohesion.
