    E36 trailing arm bushing

    http://www.turnermotorsport.com/imag...g_arm_bush.pdf

    Joel Bossert told me about some bushings for the E36 rear trailing arms. Is this the favored part by others that have replaced their bushings already (Or if you see this Joel, is this what you were talking about)? I believe I heard the Delrin (sp?) disintergrates. On the other hand, I do carry Sammy and Robby around in Vader so I don't want anything that negates Vader for street use.

    Boy! with new bushings, fresh oil, and maybe a bit tighter setting on the Konis, Vader is gonna be sweeter than ever in 2009! I might even spring for some tires LOL!

    I've never heard that Delrin deteriorates anywhere near as fast as the OEM rubber bushings. I would think the all metal bushings shown by Turner are great in a race car, but noisy and harsh in a mostly street car.

    Hey Woody.

    I might have thought so too, but if these are what Joel was talking about, he said there was no added harshness in ride. He likened them to monoballs or hiem joints (sp?) that allowed full range of motion, but not squish.

    The important thing is to get you back on the track in a real car instead of that red VW. . . or is it a Porsche?

    Don't be hate'n.

    OK, I ordered the Powerflex trailing arm bushings.

    Now Woody, remember about being careful what you wish for when Vader is filling your mirrors. ;op

    Oh boy, Vadar, chasing the Fugly Coupe, this ought to be fun to watch.

    No comment on the Red Baron!
