Okay I want the whole scoop on bushings. Where should I go with poly and where should I go rubber? 200

I did a 240 diesel to b230f conversion a few years back (PO's son overheated the D6, warping the head). You are right on the money replacing everything "while you're in there."

I did the entire driveline: b230f, AW-70, 3.73:1 rear-end, gas tank and pumps, plus most of the electricals. Dealer did the big trailing arm bushings while I had the new axle still out of the car--charged only a flat labor rate (for 1 hour IIRC)--big savings compared to doing them on the car.

I think I still have most of my notes from the conversion--let me know if you run into any problems.

Hope this helps,

Steve A-
