The rubber bushings on my 80 are worn out and I know to replace them with polyurethane bushings. I have the right equipment to make the bushings myself. Does anyone know if I should use a soft compound urethane or use a harder compound urethane, and what would the difference be between the two?

hmmm, i think its gonna depend on how you use the car. for a race car i think your gonna want a harder bushing, for the street softer.
