Has any one installed the Energy Suspension Hyperflex bushing kit? I am getting ready to overhaul the suspension and want to get some good ployurethane bushings. Does any else beside ES sell a complete kit?

I have been looking around at bushings for awhile now. Both of my tension and subframe bushings are gone. I will be getting the Energy Suspension Tension rod bushings nexy week, an aluminum subframe collars are on the way. I'll let you kow how that setup works. I really wanted Whiteline pulyurethane bushings, but they were backordered and cost a little more. After that, if the rods don't seem too flexy, I'll add a Nismo power bar.

What are you refering too when you say "ST"? Energy Suspension? Where has this been "proven" ? IS there a link you could post? Clearly it would seem to me that bushings, by themselves, do not "cause" things to break. Surely, the parts were probably in bad shape before or had endured some hard driving. I am very interested to see where you got this information. I would like to go with the Whiteline stuff too, however you have to buy each bushing set seperately and they are pricey. If they had a "kit" that would be great. I was just on the ES website and it seems they just released a "Master Kit" for the 240SX. The price was the most attractive part.

I am assuming there can't be that much difference in polyurethane, besides the "hardness"????
