Default Urethane Bushings

Wanting to change the Front lower control bushings from the stock rubber to Urethane. I figured that a lot of people have already done that here so does it increase the interior noise to bad. I would not mind to much of an increase.

Thought about swapping to the Cobra ones with the stiffer rubber bushing but they cost a lot more that just a set of urethane ones.

I had a urethane tranny mount and that was way to dang noisy for me it sounded as if my head was inside the transmission (yes I am getting old and do not want to have a headache every time I go to work)

If the bushings are worn then Urethane is a good upgrade since your doing it already. But if the stockers look fine, its not a worthwhile upgrade, your better off saving for aftermarket lower arms.

As for noise, you should not have a noticeable change, make sure you properly lube the bushings during installation if you choose to go that route.
