When I take it off will see if the poly can be cut back a little.... It squeaks like mad, grease lasts just a day

From what I see, the bushing sticks out at both ends.... Taking the car in for its roll bar extension tomorrow. When I get it back I will swap for the OEM bushing and see what can be done about the poly one. Anxious to try out the squat set up! All most had a chance when a friend invited me up to try a Mclaren at the local track and they said I could take the boss our for the spin...... But was too good to be true, The Truck taking the Mclarens had a break down and the event was canceled. That would have been fun!

Blacksheep-1, does that Metco UCA have a bearing or something inside of the diff end of the mount to articulate, if you get my drift? That piece has always interested me but I never new anyone that had one. Tis the time to be thinking, because it is about 15 below zero. I did see a nice Vista Blue Stang tonite if you can believe that.

I'm so sorry for not seeing this I was out of town for several weeks at the SCCA majors..in any case, the way Metco gets around bind is that their upper control (trailing) arm actually articulates

Thanks Blacksheep-1 for the reply, this might be something to try when my stock bushings need replacement.
