1G Where to find bushings (1990 1G fwd)

[Purple_T63]

I am looking for a lot of bushing for my car (1990 1g Talon fwd) and either cant find any or the brands dont have any reviews so maybe I am out of luck ... I plan on using the car on the track (no drag) and on the street but I dont mind loosing a bit of "street" ability if it makes a difference on track. I know that I will have to try out a lot of this stuff to see if it fits my needs but I want a good base non the less. Anyways, I am looking for : SUBFRAME and if available all other SUSPENTION bushings, SHIFTER BUSHINGS oem works but if there is an aftermarket stiffer solution I would prefer. I plan on running an aftermarker sway bar in the rear also if they exist for fwd's.

I forgot to add that I have seen some bushing on the 3d dsm creations website but I want to see all the options I have if there are any.

You mean suspension and subframe? Try perusing the Supporting Vendors sites. I've seen those plenty of times, though I don't focus much on the fwd availability, but I believe urethane versions are plentiful. A little stiffer to suite more aggressive driving at the expense of some comfort.

try this for poly bushings

In addition to link by @pat white , the other option I am aware of is Prothane.

I'm pretty certain you'll be hard pressed to find a sway bar for the rear as the 1G FWD only has a pan-hard bar or lateral rod, not an actual sway bar - see unnumbered item above #14 in the below illustration, or # 25 in the second illustration.

Yes that is why I wanted to go with a sway bar is it something that is doable ? Or am I going to fight a uphill battle?

What I'm saying is that a panhard bar is not a sway bar. The "sway bar" in a 1G FWD is more part of the solid axle, #14 in the first diagram above, listed as the torsion axle and arm assembly. A panhard bar is mainly for purposes of locating the rear axle, ensuring that it maintains position laterally (side to side). A sway bar is used to control body roll or lean by transferring the torsional forces in the bar back to the vehicle suspension to maintain a more level ride.

You can replace the panhard bar with something else but it is still going to be a panhard bar of sorts and not a sway bar. Unless there is something wrong with yours, I do not see a reason to and really would not recommend it. The panhard bar hardly weighs anything as it is so there would not be much benefit to it.

Check out any of the vendors. I tend to use www.jnztuning.com. Email [email protected] with a request for any parts you don’t see listed or if you need OEM parts, and he will get back to you asap with price and availability.

I haven’t tried this personally, but here’s an idea for the rear.
