Re: Poly vs Heavy Duty



My original question was about bushings and mounts.  Thanks to all for your
input.  I will probially go with the poly bushings and replace mounts with
poly up front (as I have now) and HD on sides and rear.  The harsh ride is
fine with me, I am not too keen on rattling my teeth with the poly mounts...
