Title: SSM bushing comparison
Post by: Gofspar on October 06, 2019, 09:55:53 PM
Over the week I played with all the different combinations of trans and motor mount bushings SSM sent out.
Settled with a Gen 4 bushing for the FMM and the Street bushings from the RMM and basically theres no real NVH, street bushings in the front is a little too much for me, and the race bushings in the rear are straight race car status and way too aggressive for a daily, I'll try them next time I track the car.
I think Anthony is using the Daystar M02957 and I've settled with those for the rear.
Heres all the part numbers for the bushings if anyone else wants to buy a set.
They're all OEM'd by Daystar which is good stuff.

Purple one's are difficult to read.

Where are you getting the bushings from?

Not sure if Daystar sells in such small quantities, probably best to go to SSM if you want just a set.

They'll all work with Anthony's mounts too if people want to mess with the stiffer ones.

Anthony's bushings come from Prothane.

I think the gen 1's were from daystar, wasn't aware he switched.

When SSM made them they were Daystar and durometer was way too high. I spec'd him a set of bushings from energy suspension, but they were slightly too long and required modification and Energy wasn't interested in changing the mold so he went with Prothane who had a mold that works great and was 70 durometer instead of the 90 the gen 1s came with.
