Shackel bushing rubber VS Urethane

[Snake]

Just got my parts,they sent me urethane shackle bushings,I have used Rubber in the past,witch are the best to use.

Whichever you want. The urethane lasts longer but may seem "harsher". Mushy rubber isn't any fun, I like urethane.

I guess I am old school. I called the parts supplier and said these are not what i wanted so now i have to wait for rubber bushings.Its too bad +5 tomorrow could of had the duster back on all fours.

pretty hard to beat o.e. rubber
should last 35 years.

There isn't a big enough difference on the skidpad to justify urethane for my driver.

Lol I run all urethane, solid mounts, tied frame and it still feels like a rubber band with a motor.
5 years is the max usable lifespan for most moderate durometer bushings, don't be running rubber for 35 years guys! Unless that's your thing, idk.
