body bushings where to buy?

[87we410877]

2 things. Im doign a frame off and am going 100% stock. I was wondering if i should do poly body mounts or factory mounts. I know the ride is tighter/firmer w/ the poly mounts but is it noticibly different?

2nd where can i buy a whole set of body bushings, controll arm bushings, pretty much every bushing on teh car and wheel bearings and such. I would like OEM stuff if its availible. Thanks alot.

You can buy the Body Mounts (NOS or Poly) from most of the Sponsors like GBody Parts.

The same places will have the Control Arm Bushings.

the poly mounts you can feel a little more of the road, however, the ride is much tighter and the body definately feels stiffer. i got a full set of poly mounts from summit.

Is it that much of a noticible difference? Im looking for the "wow this car rides nice like a brand new car" kindof reaction. Im doing a original resto so i think i should go with the factory mounts correct?

if you want a stock ride yes go with stock ones, but if you want a tighter feeling car go with the poly. it really isn't that much of a difference with feeling the road a little more. its all about preference.

The "Wow, this thing is tight" feeling will mostly come from the balance of the bushings when you replace them, I run the original stock body bushings with the addition of the missing ones including the GNX bushings. Body bushings are only a small % of the replacement process to get a good tight car. I purchased the set of 3 sets of bushings from Kirban's Performance.
