I'm using 3g eclipse bushings in all my suspension. If you would search you would find this info right away instead of having to wait for replys.
had anyone tried using the ES bushing of ecilpse to our 8Gs?

thanks!
just realized something, my 8G has a different suspension from most of you guys. i've notice that most of you guys has a mcpherson suspension for the fronts while mine has a double wishbone suspension. guess, i cant avail of the 3G ecilpse ES bushing.
how about for the rear?
are there any mitsu vehicle there having the same suspension as mine?
here's the pictures i've taken yesterday of my front suspension.
Your front suspension is the same as the USDM 7g but I can't say if the rear is the same or not.

@laxinwarrior: thanks for the info. i will try to take a picture of my rear suspension.
I'd be suprised if the bushings weren't the same size.
with that said.
you really ought to go with prothane bushings.
they are stiffer and replace more components.
But the only person that i know of who would know for sure.... doesn't frequent this site anymore.

John is right. I am still finishing the install of the prothane bushings and from my experience with them vs energy's they are extremely stiff and also do replace a few more bushings than the energy kit(assuming we are talking about the total kit for the 2g eclipse FWD which is the same as the suspension on the 7g) Unfortunately I can't give any info about the differences in handling and driveability yet but I will be able to very shortly.

thanks so much. just finishing printing the catalog of prothane. i need to study it first, same concerns with the sizes of the bushing if i'm gonna opt to get the energy over prothane.
how about for the motor mounts? currently my engine is the stock 6A13, do you think i will be having some problem with the fitting if i go for the prothane motor mount insert for V6 2G eclipse?
oh! 3G eclipse and not the 2G motor mounts. :) sorry about that
i'm still trying to find out the part number of my motor mounts from the dealer. as far as i can remember, i replaced 2 out of my 4 mounts before but threw them away already.
also noticed that my brakes at the front is bigger that the 7G here in our country and my front brakes comes with 2 piston caliper.
