I have full replacement cradle bushings from Energy and diff and trailing arm bushings from BMR. Then I have trailing arms from UMI (made right by my hometown ) Gonna install it all during my spring break.

Caverman, I just looked at your other thread and I haven't felt the ES inserts but the full replacements I have sitting on my desk are pretty beefy. They definitely aren't anywhere near as flimsy as those inserts you tried. And I don't see running into fitment issue since they are the full replacements. Thanks for the heads up, I went with them for the cost like you did and I will post up some info on the install in the beginning of March.

If Energy uses the same poly that they use for the inserts then I can tell you it's much softer than Pedders. I could take the Energy insert I had and fold it in half in the palm of my hand. I could barely get the Pedders to move much less fold in half.
Again...this is with their insert. That's all I had to compare it to. Just passing along my experience. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...hlight=pedders

Yours (granted mine are red) looked much more like rubber than poly. Mine I can't even put a dent in them with my thumb let alone fold them. Again, full vs. insert. I just hope my experience is better. I'll take some picks of mine when I get home from class.

I did full ES replacements and had a great experience with them. If you search for threads started by me in this subsection you can find the thread, a lot of DIY info, and some pics.

Ok so the fronts def have some flex. This is with me standing putting my body weight onto them.
I'm sure they will make a noticeable difference anyways. On a side note, they are missing a page of instructions. Thankfully enough people have posted their installs on here!

So going through the box again today, are the diff bushings all the same? I thought I read somewhere that two were the same and the back one was different? Is this true? They all seem the same in my pack?
