Urethane trailing arm bushing experiences?

[nando]

I've ordered several times from them and got my parts promptly. :?

heh, my shit from ireland came within a few days. you lose. I think they're awesome guys and wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again.

also, my 450lb/in springs don't even compress that much under load :shock:
i've bottomed out my car way too many times, and it's sitting relatively high (about 1" to go down) I blame the design of the new threaded perch, I'm either going to cut the top off, or get my bilsteins revalved and throw on 600lb springs
Charlie is right, OTS bilstein sports can't handle much in terms of spring rates

Since you have the axles sitting there could you please take a few measurements for me.
The diameter of the spline, number of splines, length of spline and length of shaft to the end of the thread.

Here are those measurements:
Diameter of spline: 1 1/16"
Number of splines: 27
Length of spline: 1.5"
Length of spline to end of threads: 2.25"

Sorry I didn't have a metric ruler.

I'm running IE urethane trailing arm bushings
Poly filled rear subframe mounts (stock)
M coupe diff mount (stiffer)
konis
H&R

It's a sweet setup and I have no regrets.

But I have something to say about ireland. Never order from them. It took them 2+ months to get the bushings to me. It prevented me from getting a lot of work done. Bastards.
There was one excuse after another. NEVER EVER ORDER FROM IRELAND!!!

Ordered multiple items from ireland engineering, normal shipping.

Taken 2-4 days to get to me, tops, never had a problem.
