Polyurethane bushings

[Bmetzger8]

Do they make polyurethane bushing kits for marks?

Geno sells some for the rear carrier housing, and www.mn12performance.com sells stuff for the front end. :Beer

Yes....you just have to click on the performance parts link on the upper left hand side of the screen and it will show you the Mark VIII stuff. I would link ya, but the way that site works it only links you to the home page. I have the poly front end from them, and the poly rear stuff from Geno on my car. :Beer

This is where I got my rear poly bushings:
Rear knuckle kit
It's cheaper than MN12.


Here is a link to the front poly bushings. I plan on doing these later in the year.
Front suspension kit


What our car needs is poly bushings on the subframe and poly bushings where the rear upper and lower control arm attach to the subframe.

I use the Kenny Brown aluminum bushings. You'll spend more, but what a difference!

Aluminum bushings. I might get those. How is the ride quality?

Our rear graphite impregnated carrier bushings are on sale right now for $50.00 but were out of stock for a few weeks.

Big difference! A much more controlled and smooth ride. Definately helped on the highway- those worn stock bushings cause massive wheelhop and nearly sent me sidways at WOT @ 90+ MPH! The Brown aluminums are also adjustable using the washers provided. They're $69 through Mustang Warehouse on eBay. Well worth it- and they came to me through a very pleased T-Bird owner who installed his last year...

hey does any one make a bigger/ better Throttle Body for a gen 2 mark VIII???
if not why??

 

[Bmetzger8]

Hmmmm...graphite or aluminum? I like the price on the graphite, but what is the big difference? Will I feel it? What lasts longer?

Yeah, Accufab, Steeda, etc. Big bucks ($300+)

Aluminum will last the longest. You will feel it, no matter which you choose.

is it worth it?

 

[ONEBADMK8]

Ours are lifetime warrantied.

For a normally aspirated engine? Nah, waste of money. If you have a blower or the bottle, you can probably expect better gains or throttle response. But I wouldn't bother for N/A applications; a guy with a N/A Mustang with a Bullit intake says he felt no difference whatsoever adding the Accufab...
