LEAF
SPRING REAR BUSHING AND MOUNT PAD KIT
#999-N9
Designed
for improved handling, this harder material takes
the give out of the suspension which can reduce
spring reaction time.We aren't happy with the
quality of the tooling or the material used on
these but until a better reproduction is available
they will have to do. If you have NOTHING, these
are OK. Keep in mind though, that "improved
handling" also translates into an increase in ride
harshness. Just because "race cars" use certain
designs or materials doesn't mean you want the same
items on the car you drive down the highway. The
short wheelbase, narrow, limited suspension travel,
leaf spring suspended roadster certainly doesn't
need any help in the rear axle stiffness
department. The original items on your car, like
this part, or shock absorber bushings etc etc etc,
were made from pliable material for a good reason.
Just because manufacturers can make things out of
rock hard material doesn't make the part better.
Rock hard materials are great for conveyor belt
wheels, your back may not think so after a road
trip.
