PM'd. I just need to roll the car.


Edit: also, if anyone has any they can sell super cheap or toss my way they're REALLY easy to get out with a few easy hammer taps from the BACKSIDE of the RTA.

You dont need that gay ass $150 tool.

Bap Geon has energy suspension at decent prices, they can get that stuff pretty quick to. I know there is one off little creek in Norfolk

Hope that helps

I think I'm going to avoid the energy poly bushing for the RTA. I have heard that it binds and causes snap oversteer.

Not what I'm looking for.

They you shouldn't have gotten any of the energy bushings. Hard rubber is the way to go, and kits like PIC and Hardrace come with every bushing you need.

i went with a prothane kit.

Yeah, ive read it a million times "Us ITR guys usually go with hard rubber".

I got the full poly kit for a steal, and a fraction of a cost of the hard rubber.

I already have every bushing i need, minus the rear trailing arm, which I'm NOT going urathane.



Poly bushings everywhere else should be fine. Every other bushing has a single axis, as the RTA rotatates as well as 'teeters'.
