Here are some suspension shots of the Pfadt coilovers:
By the way, the bushings on the A Arms are now poly

I will be able to wring it out a little on the way home from BG on the Tail of the Dragon. Hopefully without rain!

What I do know is that this is what they recommended and the end result is less slop in the suspension than with rubber bushings.

It's been too long ago, but I kinda remember using delrin bushings and if I recall, they were prone to squeaking. Good material and handled well, but annoying.
