I like OEM or Mugen for bushings. I wouldn't use anything else.

Which bushing do you have on your car?
Why would you refer him Mugen bushing if his only driving it on the street? Hardparking?

I have OEM and they are great ride no complaints

I have some Mugen bushings on the way

There is nothing wrong with DD on Mugen bushings geezz

Who squeezed the jelly out of your donut

I was also reffering that I wouldn't use polyurethane bushings.

There's no reason to buy the Mugen ta bushing. The OEM bushing has been superseded to the compound used in the Mugen. A poly bushing in that location will bind and cause problems.
