Pay up people! We have just over a month left! I want bushings! I will hunt you all down and punish you if this group buy falls through from the people who expressed interest not paying :evil:

Also if any of you are playing darkfall online I will make it a point to find who you are and PK you every chance I get!
(That is if I can actually get a copy of the game)

But back to bushings - BUY BUY BUY!

PAID!
I need the 2 rear kits, but I need you to decide which hardnesses..
I don't know enough about it. If there are any bushings that just act like a bearing, I want them in 90A, but all the ones that flex to make the rear steering active, I want in 70A.
Please let me know if you have any questions, or concerns.

I can't wait!
My stock car is almost as fun in corners, because the bushings on the fast one are too hard. If you guys are getting the 90A all around, you'll lose your all wheel steering.

Well, we will have a month to argue and look into this :D

If you can find something conclusive regarding the bushing durometre and the passive steering, I may just change my order too XD

I'm interested in the Fowljesse setup. All the bushings for the trailing arms and lateral links with flex ones being in a softer durometer. Do I just send you $250 CAD to the paypal mentioned earlier and I'm all set?

PAID! :)

I sent $250 for the two rear kits. Wytbishop, if you were able to source the rear brackets I need (have a '96 GS), what would you charge to add them to the order?

I can get them myself but if you were planning to pick a bunch of them up for others and have extras, it would make my life simpler. :)

I decided to go with 70 hardness since the roads are so terrible in Montreal. My ride's already spine crushing (this year is worse than it's ever been). Plus I'd like to maintain the passive rear-wheel steering as much as possible.

I have hard Energy Suspension bushings in my car, and although it corners really well, I can't feel the rear steering like I can in my stock car. When the ES bushings were put in, there wasn't a durometer choice.
I used to ride skateboards alot. They have Poly bushings that cause the trucks (axles) to move, and cause turning. The harder the bushings are, the less they move, and enable the skateboard to turn, I liked them this way, and tried various hardnesses until I found what suited my style. The rear steering on our cars is similar to the "Kingpin" in a skateboard truck, so I'm very confident that my setup will work how I want. However, I'm looking forward to the results of different hardness setups.
I have a technical question:
I'm wondering about the malleability of Poly, compared to rubber.. namely, will it squish further, and thus give us more turning of the rear wheels, or less?

Payment Sent

$250CAD for Lateral Link kit in 80A and Trailing Link Kit in 90A.

I noticed while installing my D2s that I have just about zero bushing left in my trailing links so this group buy was a must for me.
