(Thread Starter) | Neutral : +4 score I'm creating a new thread for these since I know not everyone frequents my suspension thread. Should be much easier to find this thread via searching, also. Post q's in either thread, I don't mind. Link to original post and suspension thread. I'll be posting updates over there about install and whatnot. Had some luck finding bushings for the rear suspension: Trailing arm: ^compared to the old shell Upper Control Arm: Lower Control Arm: __________________________________________________ _______________________ Everything is from http://www.polyurethan.ru/ Yep, straight from Russia. I sent a few emails back and forth and they confirmed these work so I picked them up. They also confirmed some front suspension bushings they make will work, as well. Links to their site: Updated part #'s, below. __________________________________________________ __________________________ You might be wondering about the ordering process and how safe it is. They accept PayPal only*, so it's as safe as any transaction through PayPal is. That sealed the deal for me. You select the shipping method, and they will calculate shipping cost afterwards and THEN invoice you through PayPal for the total amount. They have two shipping options: EMS Express and Russian Post. I went with EMS Express. They hand off to USPS state side and tracking works along the entire route. It took 10 days from the time I ordered to the time it was delivered. Shipping cost for all 10 of those bushings was ~$45. If you add it all up, I spent less than $150 including shipping on all of these bushings. Substantially less than what I paid for any of the WhiteLine stuff... The hardware total was <$100, so no duty fees afaik. I'm not totally sure if there will be duty fees if you go above $100, so maybe do some searching around before putting in a big order. They were pretty helpful through emails, so hit them up if you have any questions for them. The actual ordering process is not typical for an online store. You submit your order and put in all of your shipping info, select the shipping option, then wait for them to invoice you through PayPal after shipping is calculated. It was all pretty quick, just remember they're on the other side of the world so if you email during the day, you might get responses at odd hours. They were always pretty quick to reply, though. *Update 2/24/16: The ordering process seems to differ for some people. If you don't see the option to pay with PayPal, just email them after you put in the order and they'll switch it for you. After that, they'll invoice you through PayPal and you'll be on your way. They're really helpful! Update 2/24/16: @vortk355; was informed by the polyurethan.ru folks that MSF members get 10% off of their orders. I believe there is a notes section in the ordering process where you can put this in. Just mention in the notes that you are an MSF member! __________________________________________________ __________________________ Update 1/20/2016 More bushings are available and I've placed a second order to try them out. My whiteline front suspension bushings barely lasted 6 months, so I'm going to use the Russian bushings as replacements. Consolidated list of bushings: Notice the * next to 4-06-2792. That is a note that these can be used in the toe links IF you reduce the ID to that of the LCA. You need to have a sleeve machined to do this. It works great. 4-06-127 has a ? because it is not listed to fit the MS6. I've ordered a set and will try them out. I will update when I get them. Update 2/24/16: This bushing is confirmed to fit by phate 4-06-137 and 1371 are two different versions for the front UCA. You need one or the other. Orange is softer, green is harder. The green ones were not in stock when I ordered, but if they were available that is what I would go with.
