As I said in our PM's, Full bushings are a must at your power level. There is not much NVH transmitted by the solid bushings, but the movement they prevent/stop is crazy.
I know most have seen this video, but to this day, it's probably the best demonstration of deflection in the suspension I have seen. Do it once, do it right; go with Pfadt. Best regards, Tyler 888-308-6007 |

Damn Tyler. Something else I can't afford but want (and probably need)...

That video definitely makes me a believer. That price is up there though. I'm gonna work on the Toe rods and UCAs and then eventually work my way to the cradle bushings. So many parts I need! LOL.

Just drop the cradle down far enough for a socket to go between the bushing and frame. Heat the cradle around the bushing until it starts to melt the plastic and then jack up the cradle and push the bushing out.

Exactly! If you contact JusticePete from Pedders or do a search there are great DIY's of this! I agree with Tyler, do it right and do full bushings! I had BMR inserts and was never happy with them, I could still feel the rear end moving around! I went with Pedders full bushings and it made a big difference! Stick with the top 2 brands also, Pedders or Pfadt, I've seen others fail under hard road course work!

What's the difference between the Pedders EP1201 and the Pfadt full bushings?
Pedders: http://www.peddersusa.com/product/Ca...radle-Bushings Pfadt: http://store.pfadtracing.com/2010-ca...rame-bushings/ Based on price, it looks like the Pfadt is more in-line with the Pedders HD version: http://www.peddersusa.com/product/Ca...radle-Bushings

I would definitely recommend the full poly-urethane rear cradle bushings for your power level. Our BMR full poly-urethane rear cradle bushings (BK024) would be very good option for you that is very affordable and will perform well for you at your current power level and if you decide to make more power in the future. We have these same rear cradle bushings installed in many cars that drag race and autocross so they will be up to the task of handling pretty much anything you can throw at them.
Also we are staring our Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale today so you can order these parts and get 15% off and free shipping. If there is anything we can help you out with let us know. BMR full poly-urethane rear cradle bushings (BK024) |

LS3,
You have a Bis @ss cam and you're worried about noise?? Look, get the full Pedders bushings Kit from JDP and be done with it. You will not be sorry. If I knew you were looking for a toe rod I could have helped you out. T.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same. Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different. I can't wait for my next Track fix.

ADM Performance has a solid bushing as well. It hasn't been around as much but looks to be a nice piece and priced decently. Just an option to look into. He quoted me the full cradle bushing plus upper control arm bushings installed for about the price of a set of Pfadt full bushing.
http://www.admperformance.com/produc...63&product=258 Although inserts are a much easier install, if I were at your power level I would step up to the full bush. Just go ahead and get it done right the first time. I've been using Pedders cradle inserts for a couple years now and they've worked just fine for me but I'm only at about 415 rwhp.
