Replacing mounting bushings can be expensive, so we show you how to make your own mounting bushings and lower control arm bushings using liquid polyurethane! We just happen to be upgrading the bushings on our Audi Quattro race car.

Last time I installed poly bushings I used a hole saw to hog out the rubber and preserve the outer sleeves. Cleaned up the remaining rubber with a little drum sander and 36 grit. of course these were pre made poly kits around $250.
good video. useful, I like that
"these are for sale there free but theres like 800 dollar shipping" me in a nutshell
Hey Rich,at 3:17 in your video who is tall enough to reach that stuff on that shelf behind you. Look's like 10 or 12 feet up.
should've brought those spacers to the zip tie drags. Someone could save a fortune on shipping. like the dude that bought the old springs lol
clay would of worked awsome.
Why not use solid metal mounts? Or hockey pucks…
I reinforced my transmission mount on my 2004 Mazda 6 by filling it with windshield urethane. Works good, although I think it is too stiff. I may have to look into your method of doing this for my subframe mounts as well.
reminds me of an 80s subaru. you can buy poly tubes and shapes, but I see you went fancy with odd pins and bushings. Thanks for video. I let my subarus back end rock and roll for now.. sloppy old rubbers.
I used a hot glue gun for making molds for my bushings too, haha
