urethane suspension bushings?

[ydrogs at gmail.com (Gordy Stedman)]

We did the full suspension & steering bushings without the motor mounts
(used the stiffer rubber bushings) on my 79.  Except for the goddamn squeaks
I like the response.  But then again I never drove it with the old rubber
ones before they were replaced.  Sean found a complete Prothane front & rear
set for cheap (< $70).  Will see if the deal still exists and let you know.
Here is a full kit for a rabbit but should be exactly same for any A1 for
$88 + shipping.
