Torque Arm Bushing I installed a new bushing, HyperTech in my torque arm recently and am having some unusual vibrations in my car. I was wondering if anyone had developed vibration from these bushings? Or is it somthing else that just happened to be at the same time? I've got some weird **** happening and have had the car to 2 different muffler shops and they both say that they see nothing wrong.

Poly bushings transfer a lot of vibration that is normally dampened by the stock rubber bushings. Its a trade off. If the vibration started after the bushing install its most certainly the bushing transfering the vibration.

i put an energy suspension poly torque arm bushing in my car and didn't notice any new noises/vibrations. i did with the motor/trans mounts but not with the torque arm bushing.

did anything besides the bushing change before the vibration started? could you have put the bushing in wrong? that would be hard to do, as it pretty much only fits one way, just throwing out some ideas.
