The right front wheel area has been creaking and clicking for awhile. Maybe it's time for knew LCA bushings.
What is the difference between whiteline and energy suspension bushing?
I will choose between those two brands for the outer LCA bushing (where lower shock mount mounts to).
For the inner bushing, will i feel a big difference between SPL (solid bushing), and whiteline and energy?

 

Subscribed. I have the same questions. Actually doing some search on it. I wanted to go with SPL, but funds are low at the moment and I'm not sure if it'll be noisy or a lil too harsh... Looking for ppl with experience having both polyurethane and solid mounts to chime in...

 

Energy suspension if you look in this suspension forum there is a guy who posted a review of the master bushings set and a review of the front bushing kit.

 

ive seen that thread. is there a comparison between energy and whiteline?

 

If you don't mind noise, then get the SPL's, they tighten up the steering quite a bit and give a better road feel through the steering wheel.

Honestly though, the whiteline or energy are your best bet. Most people can't deal with the NVH produced by the SPL's.

If you get the whiteline for the Inner LCA you might as well replace the shock mount bushing on the LCA while it's already off the car, takes an extra 5 mins and it's better to replace now than later.

 

They're essentially the same thing, both polyurethane bushings, the only difference is the Whiteline comes with a steel sleeve around the bushing like the oem bushings where the energy does not.

 

most likely i'll get SPL for inner bushing and polyurethane for outer bushing.
i heard too many people having problem with NVH from outer SPL bushing.
