    Simply - really? Why no tranny mounts poly? I have a 318is / M42 motor and have poly subframe bushings, diff mount, and tranny mounts w/ TME's. Everything else is new OEM rubber. Doesn't seem to harsh at all.

    75d is perfect for a street car IMO if you're looking for a bit more feel over OEM. I don't find it harsh at all. Running poly everywhere in the m42, including motor mounts. Just wouldn't do the tranny though.

    I did. I don't remember the directions saying it needed it though.

    Ahh okay. So those would in fact need to be lubricated correct?

    I have the poly akg ones. I dont' think anyone actually makes the delrin version.

    AKG only has 75d polyurethane. Should I get that or look for 75d delrin?

    IMO 75d is the only real upgrade for the trailing arms. Anything less will bind or be stock rubber. I'd love a spherical bearing upgrade to be within simple price range tho.

    I've run an entirely AKG 75D rear end for 35,000 miles over the past 2 years. It isn't harsh.

    75D transmission mounts, however, are ridiculous.

    I wouldn't think so, since the NVH from the TA's will still have to go through the subframe.

    So if im already going 80A SFBs and MZ3 diff bushing then delrin TABs wont make it much worse?

    I also already have treehouse cabs and ground controls with the race camber plates. Since I already have no rubber up front how much harsher can it actually get?

    This is true. Your subframe isolates your differential,etc. from the chassis and that sucker makes a lot of NVH.

    I forget where I got my 75d trailing arm bushings. I think I got everything from akg.

    Turns(no pun intended) out the turner ones are urethane and IE doesn't sell delrin tabs either.
