[6pack] Suspension bushings

[Jim Jones]

Many listers have used uerethane bushings successfully, though I seem to
remember that there were a few comments about squeaking a bit following
installation.
 
I have nylatron bushings that were obtained from Goodparts. I have had ZERO
problems with noise or rear end sagging from worn bushings. For my money, buy
these from Goodparts. He's a great supporter of the hobby and has a well
deserved reputation for helping out with problems, should they ever arise.

I almost dread opening this thread but I've forgotten the general consensus
on
which way to go:  I need to replace the swingarm bushings in the TR-6. I may
do the diff at the same time.  I did them last in 1994 with standard rubber
items.  The car gets driven maybe 1,000 miles a year--no competition, just
plain old street driving.  What is the current thought on the best way to go
--so that I never have to do this again.  And from whom should I purchase
them?  I'm certain the heat here in the Las Vegas Valley has contributed to
their failure.
