Urethane Bushing Kits
#26
If you're dead set on getting plastic bushings (have you considered MazdaComp upgraded rubber ones, BTW?), get some with grease channels and install zerks.
Plastic bushes creak and groan like a Conestoga wagon after a while, not a biggie on a track car but very annoying on the street.

What point is it you've reached exactly?

The suspension isn't supposed to make a lot of noise ya know.

Replacing the bushings would be so much easier.

I hope he was at least. I just hope he's not one of the many who expect things to magically look good if there is no effort into doing it haha

So far I've done all the work to my car, whether it's a job that takes 10 minutes or a job that takes few days. It's a daily driven track car. With the dents/rust all over the body and smashed in quarters, I could really care less about some squeaking from poly bushings.
I want to remove the slop in my suspension. So far all that's left for me to take care of is the control arm bushings and sway bar mounts/endlink bushings. I'm replacing them because they're worn out, not because I think it will transform my car into some sort of magical super handling machine.
