Boge ProGas are what you're referring to there.

Actually, I beg to differ, Allyn. The lightest end of the car is what
affects the ride the most. Consider the effects of inertia and you'll
understand why. In our case the lightest end is the rear. It reacts quicker
to road imperfections than the front does and will thusly transmit more
shock. I run the poly upper strut bearings on my cars and find the ride
quite pleasant, actually. They're also quite indestructable compared to the
stock rubber shite.
