Re: [AMC-list] Front End

Any suggestions on polyurethane front end bushing kit for 70 AMX?

Hi Jim,
I went through the same dilemma when rebuilding by 70 AMX suspension. I talked with a few guys and the consensus was to stick with the stock rubber. Most everyone said that the poly's rode harsh and a lot of noise was transmitted into the passenger compartment. For me, a reasonably quiet ride is preferred. 
The only poly bushing I used was for the Stut rods.
I checked into Prothane and found that they don't include the shell. You must save the old one's and reuse the shell. My experience with trying to save 40 year old bushings shells is not pretty. (I had to destroy them in order to get them out.) Anyway I vote for the rubber.
