With all you guys fresh from Shootout can anyone provide any feed back on my solid aluminum subframe bushings font and/or rear. I had someone contact me and ask if I had any real world feedback from anyone making some real power with good 60ft's, I get asked this question all the time and I really don't though have any solid feedback I'm certain there's a few people out there. so if that's you please let me know how they compare to the factory bushings.

for drag;

any wheel hop?

does the rear end feel solid when you launch?

for Auto-X ;

understeer/oversteer better or worse?

steering wheel feel improved in corners?

your input is much appreciated!

Thank you!
 
I have installed similar solid bushings on my, other platforms, and I can assure you obviously from the factory its a huge improvement over 20+ yr old worn out rubber. If ES/Prothane ever made a more complete "master kit" I would be all over it. However, it still saddens me this is not the case. I can tell you from experience that once I installed the solid bushings on my DSM, the launches felt higher and were more sturdy. End play from my old factory ones were horrendous and heinously overdue for replacement. They were a pain though to install, but I had a 20 ton press at my old shop so no worries. :thumb: What else are you guy looking for? I didn't mean to jack your thread with another product, but I saw the thread topic.
