urethane suspension bushings?

[lord_verminaard at yahoo.com (Brendan Doyle)]

If it's not too late, Summit Racing also has that kit, it's where I got mine- also cheaper than anyplace else I've seen it.  http://tinyurl.com/32dedd

I had almost all of the bushings on the '84, except for the passenger and rear engine mounts, and the rear axle beams.  I really liked how it felt, although it made the poor condition of the struts more apparent.  :P

Mine squeaked for about a month, then they quieted down and didn't squeak once after that.  The remainder of the kit went on to the guy who bought the car from me.  I'll probably order another kit for the '81.

One on the local Portland import shops has the complete kit for $60.  I will
purchase this for anyone that wants one you just have to pay for the
shipping.  Here is a photo of the kit:

The sticker says "part number 22-2008 - Total kit rab/golf/jetta 75-84".
The salesman on the phone said he has one so I do not know if there is more
than that in their inventory.  Mark has first dibs then whoever.
