Is there any place I can order a Polyurethane bushing set for an FD. I need rear ones pretty bad. I have been looking everywhere. Seems like there is only kits for the 2nd and 1st generations.

Which bushes do you mean?



If it's for all the rear suspension linkages, as far as I'm aware you should only use the Mazda metal ball pillow bushings or whatever they're called. These allow for angular movement and hold the geometry firm at the same time. When they wear, they're the bits that give you the clunk in the rear end. There's at least one old thread somewhere on these...



If it's to replace ordinary rubber bushes, just take them out (and the part if possible, and take them to a suspension joint and get them to match up with bushes in stock

I think I have found out that the bushing i need is the link bushing is what I need. They are like $40 each. There is an inner and an outter bushing. So I think I am looking at paying about $120 to do all of them in the rear end. Can anyone confim that this is the bushing that I need.
