[Chevelle-list] Polyurethane rear control arm bushings

[Devin]

I went all poly about 10 years ago.  Upper and lower control arms, front and
rear, as well as body mounts and sway bar links.  I have no complaints.
Less deflection than rubber, no noise either.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Polyurethane rear control arm bushings

I was wondering if anyone has any recent experience changing the rear
control arms to all poly bushings.
One vendor claims they bind during hard cornering in road going
applications; but are ok for drag strip use.
Another vendor doesn't know of any problem.

My thinking is I'll stay with stock arms and box the bottoms, or maybe buy a
set of aftermarket ready to use lower control arms.
I'm leaning towards using all polyurethane on the lowers, and all rubber on
the top arms as they seem to have the worst looking angle to operate
through.
But I'd like to hear from anyone with a "G" machine as Super Chevy is so
fond of calling them.
Thanks.
