Looking for the best bushings (mounts) (and where to buy) for my DD 02 Ws6.

Torque arm bushing, LCA bushings, trans/motor mounts, etc..

Just what will give me as little vibrations/road noise/etc as possible.

Thanks

From what I have read, I want rubber bushings.. However, I can't find rubber replacement bushings anywhere.

I will be looking into replacing the LCAs, TQ arm, and panhard bar soon as well.. Any suggestions welcome.. Cheaper the better while still getting the job done.
Car will be lowered later with Strano springs and Bilstein shocks.

I care about ride quality/quietness/smoothness over everything else.

Moog makes rubber replacements, at least for some parts. I had them in my stock rear LCAs on my old car when the originals wore out.

As far as aftermarket stuff with rubber, not much exists. I think BMR has rubber available for some of their components. I don't think UMI, Founders, etc offers such.

There's a place that sells the whole kit (all bushings needed) for full stock replacement for around $330 or something. Still looking for it but i'm sure someone will chime in with the link

Yes, I found that after continuing to search, not too many people choose this route so not a ton of information.

Looks like I might possibly stick with stock suspension pieces with rubber bushings.

I am going to give Sam a call tomorrow and get his input.

Awesome, if you come across it definitely post up.. I looked for something similar but had no luck.

Definitely rubber for almost all bushings. Sway bar bushings can be poly. They will do the swaybar's job a lot better and not hurt ride quality. Same with the panhard bar.

This is my route.. Stock springs, koni sa, sway bars, replace all bushings.
Since its the dd it might take a bit but that is the mod list for suspension.

Stock springs? I guess they will give a smoother ride but also with more ground clearance. Hopefully yours won't look too 4x4-ish. Some of these cars look OK with stock, others look like they have a lift kit.

They are ws6 springs, car looks decent the way it is. I wouldnt mind dropping it an inch but not at the expense of a harsher ride.

No where close to a 4x4 stance.
