Help with my suspension
Hi all. I finally have a good look that I want with my car and with the headers and intake taking care of (and 425hp to the wheels) I would like to dial in my suspension. I have the Pfadt drop springs and ZL spec sway bars and I am happy there til I can afford coil overs. Im good on trailing arms and solid rear cradle bushings. Although on the trailing arms what do you guys think on the bushings? (delrin or poly)? I just sold my sub frame connectors and tunnle brace cause they were just extra weight for nothing so dont need those. I guess what I really need to know is bushings all around the rest of the car... I have a bunch of BMR poly bushings in my closet but can't remember at the momment what kits are in there... I know ill be wanting a solid road warrior with lots of spirited driving and some occasional drag strip trips. Any and all help is always appreaciated Also im headed for 500hp N/Am before going to boost and upping the power to above 700 so any thing I can reuse or not have to buy twice would be awsome as well (example I have some bushings that are not rated for 450hp and would need to swap those)

Figure I would through out there the bushing kits I already have... All BMR poly There is one kit not needed as they will not hold the horse power im goin for in the future, so ill need to replae these with stronger ones. On tap I have differential mount bushings (BK001) These are the ones I believe ill need to be stronger... These might be up for sale along with the steering rack mount bushing (BK008) as my 13 doesn't need it... All products are brand new in box. So ill be putting the rest of these on... Front lower control are bushings (BK018), front raduos rod bushing (BK019), and rear upper control arm bushings (BK017). TW78911SC suggested the rear upper control arm bushings (BK039), and the trailing arms im getting have the outer bushing taking care of, so what's left? Again any and all help is much appreciated!
