New Compression Rods w/ Energy Poly Bushings

Well, ya'll i'm trying to solve your problems! I see a lot of people who ask a lot of questions about compression rods and what they should do about them. I have these brand new Mevotech compression rods with brand new Energy bushings. These will come pre installed and pre greased straight to your door ready to install.

No more finding a ride and paying a shop to press out your old bushings and then still being left with an old ball joint.

I do not manufacture these parts, all logos and names belong to their respective owners, I claim no affiliation, I merely provide an obtaining, pressing and mailing service.

price excludes shipping. PM me for shipping quote.

These will come with new cone shims and cotter pins.

NOTE***
I only have one set of these right now, so it's first come first serve. I will get more as people request them.

You're still on the first page of the suspension section. No need to bump too often. "new posts" is tied your specific browsing habits, not everybody elses.


GLWS. I just ordered new whiteline bushings 2 days ago. Guess I'll be stuck with an old ball joint. lol

Your compression rod bushings are most likely bad too. Sometimes its not as obvious as others. If you get an alignment and your caster is off its because of the bad c-rod bushings. It's all but impossible to run rubber c-rod bushings in our cars for any length of time because the suspension isn't squared properly. 6 months or less and they're toast.

Also the poly bushings improve handling greatly because when caster is where its supposed to be it actually stretches the wheel base slightly and makes for tighter steering and more dynamic camber. It just feels like a better built car with poly.

If youre just gonna install them with new rubber bushings I wouldn't bother. You'll just be in the same place in 6 months or less. If you have the compression rods already, just get some Energy or Whitleline bushings and find someone to press the rubber ones out and grease/install the polys. Or return yours and buy mine and save $200 haha
