Should I use these on my suspension? 

What's has your experience been ?

Anything this flimsy and transparent I would never use on my suspension or any part of the car.

 

Wait where is that smiley facey thingy....

Seems like they'd disintegrate and disappear before you even got them installed.

Must be one of those stealth upgrades.

There is a ton on the forum about "PU" bushings.  They're all about the same.  It all depends on what you're trying to do.  Nobody can say if you should or shouldn't without knowing that.

And you can get them cheaper on Amazon.

just a refresh.  I'm sure the red are better than the black. 🙂

The standard response is that these is no advantage to using these on the differential or transmission mounts unless you like increased gear noise from those areas brought into the cabin. Suspension bushings are another matter, but for street use, I much much prefer stock control arm and TC rod bushings .  

Better handling comes at the compromise of harshness, more road noise and steering wheel “sensory input” ie vibration.....

thank you.  Great information. I'll go for the stock one.  Any idea if I can order all of them at once?

Those are all poly bushings from what I see. @zKars ??

CarPartsManual.com Find the OEM number and order from a supplier.

Looks the standard set of energy suspension or Prothane bushings to me
