Rick, if anything the synthetic TA bushes are easier to install than the
rubber versions. They come in two pieces and are easily inserted into the
trailing arms. Some people complain of ride harshness but I have not noticed
that personally. Some synthetics squeak more than others despite assembling
with anti-seize etc and a simple fix is to install a grease fitting under each
bush and lube them once in a while.

Subject: [net] TR-6 trailing arm bushes
Hi all,
I recently ordered a set of poly bushed for the front end of my TR-6. I was
expecting something of similar consistency to my kids' roller skate wheels,
but these things look like hard plastic (they probably soften up with time).
Anyway, this had made me wonder about poly bushes for the rear suspension
trailing arms. Has anyone found that poly trailing arm bushes are
particularly difficult to install (would I better off sticking with rubber)?
Thanks for the advice,
Rick Lambour
