Thread: Polly dogbone bushings?

its pretty straight forwards. you're going to have to cut out the stock bushings unless youre a magician. its best to press the poly bushings in with a vice (easiest).

you also dont have to support the motor.

mine came out easy. just take some wire snippers, and cut the rubber lip of the bushing on one end. do it all the way around. Then just take a screwdriver and push the bushing out the other end. those lips are the only thing keeping them in the dogbone.

then just slide the new ones in. it helps to use some grease when putting in the poly bushings. i would do it just in case they try to get squeaky

Where can I get theas at, and how much are they? I have a rattle somewhere and I think its from my Moter mounts It only happens when its in drive. any one know what it is?

Not sure what the difference is? I've got the offset ones from ZZP and have had'em for ~4 years, with no problems at all. You should get the offset ones if your lowered.

edit... nevermind, on ZZP website

Offset mounts are discontinued, if you still want to rock the engine forward, then the shorter dogbones are what you are looking for

As far as the noise... it could be that, or alot of other things.

get intense poly mounts (they are the only ones who offer the round bushings anyway). they are a little softer compound that the ones that zzp uses.

i had both on my car and loved the crap out of them.

x2. intense were the only ones i used. much softer and quieter than the zzp mounts i had.

I've been known to burn stubborn rubber bushings with a MAPP torch as a last resort.

I read on the Stacey David's Gearz website that freezing poly bushings will make them shrink up a bit and make them easier to press in. I'd be curious to see if that's the case with the square ones. I use a vice to press them in but it would be interesting to see if this made it any easier.

Just lube them up a lot with wd40 or jb80 sinces its twice as good. Then wack them in with a rubber mallet.
