I'm slowly compiling my list of parts. I like the idea of the axle beam bushings over a sway bar--especially after taking a peek at the condition mine are in. I didn't think of doing the front sway bar bushings but that seems like the route for me as well.I did consider it. But I prefer to improve what's already there. That's just how I do things. Plus the bushings needed replacement anyway. Currently, the oversteer/understeer balance is in a good place. So I decided not to add a rear sway bar.
That said, if you want reduced body roll but don't want stiff axle beam bushings, the rear sway bar would be the way to go.
I skimmed your thread and boy it seems that I should just go with standard oem replacements, especially gvien blacktree didn't notice any difference with his.I don't know if this applies to Uro's upper HD strut mounts, but I purchased ECS Tunings HD mounts. I used a set of Billy TC's on them. There was an engineering design flaw in them. They stated that they would work with all shocks when in fact they didn't work with the TC's because of the "circle" clip that the TC's use on the shaft as the mount "stop". The HD mount had a chamfer that would "roll" on the clip and it would cause clunking when the mount would roll over and then hit the shaft. They worked fine with the HD shocks from Billy because they use a washer and a shelf on the piston shaft as the mount stop which has a flat surface so the mount couldn't roll over.
I ran this up the ladder to their team and it sounded at the time like they were going to re-design them. Not sure if they ever did or not. I went back to the "stock" style mounts with the TC's and the clunk was gone. I wrote up an entire thread about the scenario on here.
Yup I've got the Cupra R bushings and they're greatThe Cupra-R bushings seem to get nothing but praise. So I'm sure they're good.
