Do you recommend non stock bushings in the A- arms?
What is the biggest advantage to going with Energy Suspension polyurethane mounts?

I also have two sets of old school Crager SS 15" rims that I debated using. I think I more prefer the stock look - haven't decided yet.
I will call Mark at SC & C as you advise.
I also need brake and fuel lines.
Is our host the best value for these?

Thank you for your comments and help.
Mark
Mark,

I've used poly bushings in the front A-arms and would use them again, no problems with binding and they are more durable than rubber. The poly body mounts area huge plus for convertibles especially, they will add strength and stiffeness to the body/frame unit.

I'm sure PY is competitive in pricing, please support our forum sponsor if you can.

Bart
