I currently need to put new bushings and endlinks on my 2000 ford explorer XLT. The only problem that i am having is what type of bushings to put on. I heard from quite a few people that the polyurethane bushings make your truck really bumpy and uncomfortable. does anyone know of a good set of bushings and endlinks for my truck?

Welcome to this forum! I've renamed your thread, and moved it into the stock 95-01 section. The standard black rubber bushings are fine, but the polyurethane bushings are high performance. They are made out of a denser material, but you won't feel a difference. They last much longer, and are recommended.
 






I agree with Brooklyn, I put some poly end link bushings and sway bar bushings on my 2000 Ex and it feels fine, but no better than before.

They have held up just fine for about 4 years now.
 






Moog uses 7/16" end link bolts and thermoplastic rubber bushings.
Energy Suspension has 3/8" bolts and polyurethane bushings.

I was inclined to go with the Moog's for added strength.
I've used both and couldn't feel a ride quality difference. GL
 






I'm running autozone lifetime warranty end links w/ bushings. No problems after 3 years. :thumbsup:
