Does anyone besides Powerflex even make these bushings? Edit, I see M/A sponsor Detroit Tuned does sell the Ireland version So this begs the question, what the difference between the PowerFlex and the Ireland versions?
I would say very little. However, I think that the powerflex compound is a little more forgiving in the cold weather. This based on what I have heard from others. To add: I have the front lower arm bushings. I have not had a problem with them in the cold. Here in SC, we got into the 'teens this past winter.
They are very easy to install. The only one that gets bothersome are the small ones as you have to almost cut off the old one. It only took me maybe a couple of hours to do it. The larger ones are actually only an insert, as they stiffen up the OEM one.
I have the Ireland ones. They were tough to get in because they were almost too big. I had to use a bit of force to get the transmission mounts in.
I like the added vibration. It makes it possible to tell what speed you're going by the amount of vibration. The nvh did seem to get better after having them in for a long time.
:lol: I love this. For me, the shade of orange that my bonnet is glowing is a better indicator. But whatever works for you.
