It's hot in Miami and everywhere in the southern eastern quarter of the US. Slow going on projects due to work and kids, but here's where I'm at:
The ONLY bushings I would bother with getting from Durable parts are the Front control arm (front and rear), rear upper forward, swaybar, shock, and subframe. The rest of the bushings have the inner sleeve bonded to the polyurethane and bind during articulation. I have multiple solutions, but I'll itemize:
Front:
Forward - Siberian Bushings from Durable Parts
Rear - Siberian Bushings from Durable parts (I have the Moog arms with the smooth rear shaft that is around 35.5mm in diameter, so I simply threw them in my lathe, but these are also bonded and bind under articulation. There's no alternative though at this time.)
Rear:
Upper forward: Siberian Bushings from Durable Parts
Upper aft - stock late 2011+ or whenever they went to a flex joint.
Lower inner - I'm experimenting with a few things. It's a 2" OD that presses in nicely, so anything with that size of a body. FK CPW14 cup, FK WSSX14TF1 bearing, [/size]A1-SG14-1012 misalignment spacers could be an option. I have a few flex joints I ordered to experiment with as well and will update with pictures.
[/size]Lower outer - Same as above, but the bushing size is about .020 smaller, so a small turn on the lathe for any bushing/bearing cup.
[/size]Toe Link - I have some adjustable links with an outer rod end and inner flex joint.
[/size]Lower front link (compression strut) - Same as the Toe link, but have a yoke from Synergy from a Jeep. Unfortunately, I was only able to get 4 and no clue if they will make more.
[/size]Compression strut at the Knuckle/Upright - Change to a flex joint. 40mm OD with a 50mm width to accommodate the wider Jeep yoke.
[/size]If you're alright with some mild binding in the bushings, then you can get the lower outer control arm, lower forward control arm (on the arm/chassis, not at the knuckle), and toe link inner bushings from Durable parts. The forward lower control arm at the knuckle has a 14mm bolt for the Explorer vs the Taurus 12mm bolt. Easy enough to drill out the arm if desired. Just as easy to get the Flex joint from SPC with a 40mm dia and 40mm width.
[/size]Once I get these parts in and really start experimenting, I'll take some pictures and give some ideas of cost.
