Does anybody know a good place to buy the energy suspension polyurethane bushings for the front end control arm, and the front sway bar frame bushings? you can read all about them at the energy suspension website, but they dont sell them. Are they worth installing? how much are they?

Go to Suspension.com they have better prices than Courtesy Nissan. I purchased the front sway bar bushing and endlinks for $16 shipped to NJ.

Three questions on the suspension bushings....

1) Did the new bushings make any noticeable difference in handling or feel of the car?
2) Do they "squeak"?
3) Does the car seem harsher with the new bushings?

Any info would be appreciated! BTW...thanks for the tip for bushings from Suspension.com.

Here are your answers.

1) Did the new bushings make any noticeable difference in handling or feel of the car?
Yes for a small investment you will notice the difference.

2) Do they "squeak"?
They can and will if you do not grease them well. If you order from suspension.com they will come with grease if you want more go to a marine supply and buy waterproof trailer grease. Same stuff the you can buy for Energy Susp but alot less $$$.

3) Does the car seem harsher with the new bushings?
No I does not.

Hope this helps
