T/C compression kit: Rubber or Urethane bushings?


Recommended Posts

I've searched and cant find an actual answer.  

 

 

For s30's, Does running a urethane rear bushing with the T/C kits defeat the purpose of the T/C kit in the first place or will it still allow the arm to pivot?

 

Im already running urethane bushings and would like to avoid having to buy 2 replacement ones, although if I need to I absolutely will.

 

While someone at MSA recommended me the rubber bushings, the part description says you can use either one.

 

Thanks

I can tell you that John Coffey recommended not running urethane tension rod bushings, only rubber ones.  I believe he said that urethane bushings limit the required movement of the tension rod and can damage the tension rod, which makes sense.  I don't think running a rear urethane bushing would be as much of a problem if you run the T/C kit, but I would recommend rubber bushings.  I installed rubber tension rod bushings in my Z.
