      Best body, A-arm bushings?

      I need to replace my complete body mount and A-arm bushings on my 73' Camaro,
      is urethane the way to go?<<< PST or Energy, or normal Moog?
      Are they squeaky and make the car ride like a buckboard? err...I mean a indy car?
      Best source, price?

      So rubber (moog?) in A arms and poly for body mount bushings sounds like the way top go?

      It's a question of goals... if this is a daily driver/cruizer than rubber in the a-arms is probably the best choice. If worked for 30 years and will work for another 30.
      If you want to push the car then Del-A-Lum is the best choice.

      Nothing wrong with poly body mounts, but I don't see a reason not to use Aluminum or Steel

      SO poly mody mounts = no squeeks, due to minimal movement I assume?

      Yep, what Lowend said. Rubber for a driver. Del a Lum or equivalent (delrin) for serious performance use. Mark SC&C
