Trolling around on the site I see lots of guys using aftermarket bushings (daystars etc). What are the benefits of this product over the stock...? Also, where are they best used?
thanks.
 






Poly bushings are made a little more rigid, providing less give than stock rubber bushings. These are a great improvement when used on the sway bars, also on control arms, and in the leaf springs. I have replaced all of mine with the daystars that Hank is selling, and found huge improvements in handling, my ex has a 178,000 miles and you couldn't tell by riding in it.
 






Better handling, tighter steering, better ride, etc. Plus they don't corrode as fast as stock rubber bushings.
