errrr cant get BMR delrin bushings to line up.
they are in the cradle fine. i can get the front lined up but i can not get both the rear bolts in. i can move the whole cradle as long as the front bolts are not tight enough for the alignment pins to be in. but i can not get the rear bolts in even with the front alignment pins in. worked on this all day. errrrrrrr

no. the fronts have a groove and partially drilled out bigger for the alignment pins. i noticed the oem bushings have a huge hole in them for the bolt and the bmr are only big enough for the bolts.

How's the ride (NVH) with those delrin bushings?
Would it be tolerable for a DD in your opinion? Also, would like to know how much improvement with the sway bars?

i noticed no NVH. i would have no problem putting them in a DD. The sway bars were a slight improvement over the 1LE bars. I probably wouldn't bother with the bars unless it was used on the track.
