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

Definitely do both front control arm bushings in poly.

DEFINITELY do the torque rods in poly.

I will probably do the trailing arm bushings in poly when I swap my axle AGAIN, but I still have rubber there. My car is driven hard and they haven't been killed quickly like the front bushings, and the torque rods.

So if you want to save some money, the two trailing arm bushings in rubber will probably last a long time. The front bushings in poly are really nice, and will add some castor as well as making the handling more precise. And the torque rod bushings are just so pathetic in rubber that I could never think of a stock bushing there again.
