Get the kit from the Polish manufacturer... They offer all the bushings for $300 shipped anywhere in the world and they are poly bushings. It may seem expensive, but not when you see all of the bushings that it contains.

What Polish manufacturer are you referring too? $300 shipped is a good price BTW.

Re: Starting group buy: Custom Aftermarket Bushings

Excellent, thanks for digging up the info. I'm curious if anyone has successfully installed all the bushings and what are the impressions so far. Also, is the ordering process pretty painless?

Thanks.

Doesn't seem like it. Check out this link for an alternate solution: http://svxworldforums.com/view_topic...65&forum_id=13

You can also put in new rear diff bushings from subaru along with the inserts, but I've heard that they're a pain to change so try just the whiteline inserts first if your mounts aren't completely trashed. Also they are easier to mod than the thread will make you think. I did this and it worked pretty well.

Re: Starting group buy: Custom Aftermarket Bushings

I will point out that while these stiffer rear diff bushings tighten things up a bit, they are very noisy. Hindsight being 20/20, if I had to do it again, I would just get brand new OE bushings.

The poly swaybar bushings, OTOH work very well, and have no downside that I am aware of.
