    IE Urethane rear bushing kit. Anyone have this?

    I happened to buy these as I was planning to completely revamp my suspension, and replace most components.

    The list so far:

    RTRS offset control arm bushings.
    RTRS rear subframe bushings.
    IE Rear shock mounts.
    IE Rear bushing kit.

    All the parts are urethane, but I was wondering if anyone has the rear IE bushing kit on their car (above link), since I was told to get the trailing arms replaced since I was doing everything else. Later I found out it was this I needed:



    Rather than IE rear bushings and trailing arms. Well, I already bought them, so again my question is if anyone is using these, and if they're worthwhile, or should I send them back and get the bushings in the above link.

      That does sound like me. Still, I'd like to see if anyone else concurs keeping these, or sending them back for the mentioned product.

      Also bumping this thread in hopes that someone else has them. Love the new Index too.... :up:

        Did you get the adjustable IE Bushings?
        If not, I would try and get the adjustable kit, it allows more options for suspension settings and really makes the car feel planted.
