I put BMR tubular LCA's (rubber/poly combo) on my car a couple of years ago, one of the poly bushings is deteriorating and I want to get a replacement. I tried contacting the sponsor that sold them to me but they don't carry them, and I've not been able to get a response (email) from BMR themselves.
Are there any sponsers here that sell these busings?

Thanks.

Call BMR......usually takes a few days to get an email back.

Your right-I do so much of my work by email I sometimes forget about the phone.

from what i hear/read, poly bushings on LCA's is a big no-no (on fbody anyway) ... the LCA's need to be able to flex.... might want to check out higher durometer rubber bushings


search the forums you might be able to find more info

Hmm...Well considering that all aftermarket suspension stuff either comes with poly or solid rod ends, I'd say you are wrong.

Man the whole point in getting aftermarket LCA's is so they don't flex.

well, sometimes the suspension needs to flex..... read up on it

and suspension part makers sell poly bushings typically because poly is perceived to be the best afaik - its all about sales

but read up on the subject, i'd post a link if i had one - i'll try to find it...

If suspension needed to flex then why would anyone buy aftermarket. If it needed to flex why wouldn't BMR or other suspension companies even OFFER rubber bushings? I guess the stock suspension on these cars are better than aftermarket. I'd love to see a link and read about it. Please let it not be from the SRT forums.

fbody 3-link suspension needs to sway horizontally - poly bushings don't allow for that

rubber and rod-end do
