I had the exact same experience. Saw the nylatron bushing kit in the VB catalog
Called them to ask if it was both front and rears (appeared as if there might
even be too many bushings in the kit), and the VB rep new less about her product
than I did it seemed. If you or anyone purchases or has purchased this kit,
could you please let the list know what it's all about?
On a related issue, why are you not interested in poly? Is nylon better in
some regards? It seemed as though from previous threads regarding this subject
(if I remember correctly) that a majority of the list members preferred poly.
