    Rear knuckle/control arm bushings

    Well, bushings for the upper rear knuckles are busted, where the upper rear control arm connects to the knuckle assembly. Does Energy Suspension sells them?

    I don't think so... But you can get a kit for a 2g Gelipse that works from Prothane. At least i did!

    Also ebay sells just the bushings on the cheap!

    Prothane all the way. If you just want the individual bushings I think DSMgraveyard sells just the upper knuckle bushings in pairs.

    Do yourself a favor and just replace all of the bushings. Keeps every joint centered on 3 axis through the suspension travel. You'll curse and curse during the install, but you'll never believe what a difference it makes in literally every aspect of your suspension/handling.
    It turns every joint in the suspension into a steel hinge. Soooo nice. From the factory most of these joints function like limp dick handshakes.
    Truth be told.... if i had to start all over on a 7g/2g... I'd install prothanes before I even bought springs/coilovers for it.

    I need it...BAD. I think it's $80 for the rear kit. I need to find a temp solution for the knuckle bushings untill I purchase the complete kit.

    PROTHANE. i have the energy ones on my car and while they're just as good, they are a PITA to install; they need to be pressed in while the prothane are a 2 piece design.
