Except for the obvious responsiveness improvement on the steering, are there any side effects of going poly? I.e too much stress on components, steering gets jittery etc?
I ask as mine is pretty squishy and I was thinking of getting a hard one. (Come on Sean, don't let me down!)
I think having a hard one on your shaft is the way to do it.
There and the steering rack?
I replaced my old rubber coupler with a red poly a few months ago and it felt like an improvement to me. Plus, I could move the steering coupler around a lot with the old rubber bushing which made me nervous.
I have a aluminum couple that I got in a parts car sitting on the shelf, maybe you have one that was painted black??
Still, the best feeling improvement was the steering rack poly upgrade and T/C rod upgrades.
Thanks Franky! Can't believe Sean was beaten to it
That is great to know, thank you. I've had the poly rack bushes sat there for three years and not gotten around to doing it yet but you've convinced me to do it soon!
I know what you mean about feeling nervous on the squishy rubber front. I really worry about old rubber on something so vital to keeping me alive! Gulp!
What did you upgrade your TC rods to?
