This is an important issue for 'Piners and I think there may be a
company that will work with us if we can get a large enough order. I
have had a little experience with Energy Suspension here in SoCal.
It's a name I am sure many of you are familiar with. They specialize
in polyurethane suspension products. They helped me not long ago with
PU boot covers for my ball joints and tie rod ends. They had covers
right off the shelf (but I did have to modify how they mounted, using
baling wire to hold them on). I think they'd be more than happy to
make a run of bushings for us if we could scare up enough support (and
by that I mean $$), much like Sergio did with the ARP rod bolts. What
do you all think?
