I know the endlinks on the Progress bar ARE upgraded urethane and I believe the two that hold the bar in the middle are, too. But don't quote me on that second part

Did you find it was helpful to grease the bushings some? To elimintate squeaking, that is.

I installed them directly as they arrived. Haven't heard a squeek yet.

Yeah, I now believe the Progress are upgraded. (******* I miss that bar. *sob*)

Travis at DMR is one of the nicest vendors on these forums I've ever had hte pleasure of dealing with. If and when I start modding my suspension I'll be doing this along with the sway bar and perches. DMR makes some GREAT products, and they're great with PU.

EDIT: Assuming the stock bushings are rubber (like almost all of them are) that could explain the squeeking. PU can squeak, but far less so from what I've noticed.

It may be amplified by my completely naked trunk... just like road noise and exhaust noise is.

Mine was half-naked during the coilover days, and I didn't hear anything...

(oh yeah, baby. My trunk was "topless" ! )

Word from Deyeme is that the bushings should be done pretty soon.

That might explain why I haven't gotten my motor mounts yet, either..

Our annual get-together is over, so now we're getting back on track. The online ordering is back up. I have my nephew at the phones during the day, and he can answer basic questions, but email is still the best way to get ahold of me for tech questions, since I can read and respond to them as I get time.

We'll have the swaybar bushings available July 1st, in blue, black, and red. We may make other colors available in the future, but it's not like they're high-visibiity items anyway. If you'd like to request a color, I'm always open to suggestions.

Be sure to mail a bottle of Jack Daniels with those front bushings. They'll need it after the install.
