Pretty sure he means he "wants to buy", english may be a second language.

I have used prothane before on my old Camaro, it is of good quality. No complaints from me.

I would only use the Polyurethane bushings for individual bushings that wear out- NOT every single one...they make a lot of noise and have to be lubricated to quiet them.

like maybe the two upper or lower control arm bushings. There are better ones made special for C4 upper arms, so I would not use those if you can afford the better ones.

I put the total kit on my Car. No issues and a good price point. GC

Wow, some people are just amazing. Guy was trying to get his point across the best he could. WTF is wrong with people anymore?

Both "Prothane" and "Energy Suspension" offer a quality product with their poly bushings. You will find that both companies have a loyal following of customers who swear by one brand over the other, but the truth is, both companies offer bushings that perform much better than the stock rubber pieces.

One thing you should keep in mind is that even though both are made of polyurethane - Energy Suspension's bushings tend to be noticeably more pliable (softer) than Prothane's bushings. This make's Energy's bushings easier to install and probably provide you with a slightly more comfortable ride. Of coarse, technically, because Prothane's bushings are stiffer, they will probably perform a bit better at the expense of a stiffer ride.

It's up to you. You can't go wrong either way, but if you're looking to improve handling without sacrificing too much comfort, Energy Suspension bushings might be the better choice. If you want maximum performance, go with Prothane.

Hope that helps.

Good luck and welcome to Corvette Forums!

When you were a noob were you also as rude as you now are? If you do not care for the questions asked on this forum then do not read them. Rude people will not be missed.

My car came with new energy suspension bushing and they are excellent, I've never driven on stock bushings but these are impressive to say the least.

I think you would be pleasantly suprised with them if you decide to go in that direction.

OK...on to the question.

That's a good set of bushings, but like others said, urethane will ride rougher and make more noise than rubber. Make sure to use LOTS of silicone grease when you install them or they will squeak. It can get annoying. The squeak gets worse when it's cold outside.

The car will handle better with urethane than rubber as the suspension geometry stays more constant, but it's a trade off for a rough ride and noise.

Hope this helps.

Ok I'll say there is a bit more road noise....

Just turn up the tunes!!!

Many of them are laying low....

I too am quick to call out a troll, but I don't want to scare off legitimate new members. If someone is a troll, we'll know soon enough. And I damn sure don't want someone getting scared off by a simple language barrier that's easily overcome by all parties.

I understand
I didnt know there was a language barrier involved. I looked up his profile and it didnt list where he is from.
If in fact there is a language barrier, then I am truly sorry.

Frizlefrak

Yep, he's from Kuwait. He's posted pics of his (very sharp) C4 complete with Kuwaiti tags on front.
