It suggests this would not be to your liking. But I would wait a bit. The bushings are new and as stiff as there ever going to be. But here is a thought if you want to try. Take out your dogbone. You will note that there are gaps in the mount to permit movement. Clean it up real good (real good) and put a filler in the gaps and let it dry ( I suggest GOOP marine adhesive. Flexible but not rubbery. Good stick power but you can remove it). I don't know how long it will last, but your not committed. Or maybe try a more solid filler. Just a thought!

I try to avoid wheel spin personally, but I would think that limiting the 'spring' as represented by the OEM dogbone would go along way towards inhibiting tire slap. If you drive that hard, you may want to consider a diff product as the Steeda inserts are not hard like poly.

Ooops! My error then. Sorry. I thought poly was that rigid stuff. The Steeda (or the "Energy Suspension" pieces which others claim are made by Steeda)) are not rigid. So what is the rigid stuff called?

[NemesisEnforcer]

i think those ARE the rigid ones...or at least as rigid as they get....

No. there are some that are like a hard plastic, but very tough. These bushing are like a thick rubber. Very pliable.

NemesisEnforcer >> You do not want this mod. Vibration is noticeable at idle. Ran with the air today and the steering wheel was shaking visibly. You can feel it everywhere. Hands, butt, door panels, wheel etc. There is one thing I noticed however and maybe someone can collaborate. Torque steer has been greatly diminished. It almost feels like a RWD. Shifting was also more sure. Also, during acceleration, that vague spongy feel is gone. The drive seems to be better 'hooked up' with the tires. I don't think the wife is going to like it in the long run.
That's my report!

thanks! yeah, so maybe i wont do it. i want the benefits u mentioned, but not at the cost of my daily drive comfort. tough thing to decide on really.
