slow and dirty

 

What a cool idea... wheel hop with these cars totally sucks...

How do they work with 19 inch wheels and street tires?

Do they press in?

they press in but you can put them in with a c clamp as long as you freeze the bushing before install. Talk to you soon jb

 

We are installing these in segments to target where the noise comes from and eliminating it.

 

What kind of noise is it?

It could be something that the rubber bushings dampened, but the aluminum bushings pass on to the frame...

 

We are using a hard type of plastic for the top mount on the pumpkin (2 part bushing) Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh We will keep you posted.

 

went out tonight for a shakedown of the bushing set up. With just the bushing on the rear of the pumpkin NO WHEELHOP with the drag radials on. It felt awesome. C you guys soon

 

Were you running a plastic or metal bushing last night? I really need one of these, PM me with details once you are able to make more

 

there are three bushings that support the rear. 2 for the front one for the rear that is located in the subframe. What I ran last night is the one pictured above. We will keep you posted when we make a few. later

 

Mike how was the 8th mike track with the bushing???

 

the car just squatted and then the tires just hooked it was awesome marvin

 

Did the install tonight on Danny's car Green bloblin and things went smooth. Measurements were right we just need to get more suited tools. We will for sure be purchasing some chisels and a bigger c clamp. But we figured this time we would show some install pics for those of you debating on doing this.



































AND THATS ALL SHE WROTE

 

The car feels nice, hopefully next time I get to the track we can see some improved times to show for it.

 

Great job guys! Looks like you just put the rear bushing in Danny's car?

What is the black goo dripping down from the OEM bushing in the picture? Is there some kind of liquid goo in the rubber bushings?

Glad to see that you guys are stocked up on snacks...

Jb the black goo is the blood of a dead oem bushing. The oem bushing has pockets that are solid rubber and a gel filled in the rest, once it tears its donezo.
