Has anyone used suspension bushings from FCP Groton? I usually buy other stuff from them, but I was wondering if I’d be better off going to IPD, since that’s their specialty. Of course, IPD is also more expensive. But that’s not always an indicator, since IPD charges a lot more for the identical shocks, brake pads, etc. Even with the 20% off suspension sale that’s going on now at IPD, Boge and Bilstein shocks are still cheaper at FCP!

Thanks!

I got four control arm bushings (OEM Boge) from FCP. They were the same thing Volvo sells. Nice.

Thanks everyone for all the information and advice, Doug C. 81 242 Brick Off Blocks, stock, B21F (non-Turbo), M46; 86 244, B230, 140k , auto.

i concur with my fellow brixsters--just adding a little experience.

i didn't get the kit, bought the items separately.

i insisted and bought a complete set of boge (oem) bushings for the front, including the ball joints (moog/trw) and poly sway bar link bushings.

can't beat their prices, very happy with the parts; they gave me everything i requested.

I bought the front end bushing & sway bar link kit from FCP on Ebay (saves a few bucks) and have been happy for over a year now. Firm yet durable bushings at bargain prices. Take Care!

Sounds like FCP has got it all!

FCP polyurethane torque rod bushings....absolute bargain!!

I installed their front end kit 6 months ago and all is well so far.

I just got the front end kit and I am very happy with the bushings that came with it.
