Yes, please replace those as soon as you can.

 

what will happen if i dont.... i mean i can replace them right now just the dealreship is closed.... im actually in the process of looking to see if another model cars bushing will fit mine....

 

dude, its less than $40 for polyurethane ones from energy, replace them even if they arent bad

 

courtesyparts.com $40 you will have bushings..?

 

what makes these so awesome.....

 

They are stiffer. They will make your car handle better.

Good Morning

 

better handling, stiffer, best of all you dont have to use a press to install them Price is on par with the stock rubber bushings.



worn out bushings will make the car wander, mess with your allignment and cause premature tire wear, I'd get it fixed ASAP!

 

aight well my alignment is messed up, my tires are bald, and i cant handle for ****, so i guess ill wait till next week!


thanks.

How difficult is installation?
You dont need an impact wrench do you?

 

it would probably help greatly, but no, you shouldn't. You probably should have a nice long breaker bar though.

 

I am looking at the courtesy parts website under the Energy section to get these bushings but i dont see them listed for a 2000 SE. Can someone help me out and paste the link to the page that has them for a 2000.
Thanx
