Bob,
I've got Nylatron in the front, in the trailing arms and in the diff
mounts.....and the solid aluminum steering mounts. You do get more road
feedback but the car also feels much tighter. Ride quality is a subjective
thing but these cars are 30-40 years old and ride quality was never a
selling point anyway. If they ever need replacement, I'd go the same route
and use Nylatron.

Subject: [6pack] [6-pack] rubber vs. urethane vs others
Seeing the TRF Weekend specials raises the question of which type of front
suspension bushings are the best for just driving around. I am not going to
race (on a track) or do auto-cross. I want something that is going to
provide a decent ride but not need to be replaced in a few years because it
has deteriorated. I am okay with a firmer suspension, I have the sport
suspension on my 325, but I hate the jar when I hit rough pavement (which
might in part be due to the low profile tire).
For those of you that have used urethane, how would you rate the difference
in ride quality?
Is there a difference between different urethane, polyurethane, nylatron and
any others out there?
Any recommendations?
