Including the one from Harrier, apparently. Nice shot of a ride which looks like 2 tons of fun!

New bushings are an upgrade if yours are worn out, but I don't recommend poly bushings for anything but body mounts.

Why is that? I put some on mine and the truck rides better than new.

They restrict suspension movement and normally tear quickly. I tried a set on my beams once and they only last 2 months. I got about a year out of rubber.
I have since gone to spherical bearings and they have had no issue for the last two years. I'm pretty rough on equipment though.
Wow... that went right over my head.

RE: Harrier
Actually, Harrier is the airplane, it is built in Great Britain by Hawker-Siddley and in this country by McDonnell-Douglas now Boeing. The current version is the AV8B and is flown by the Marines.

It was past my bedtime when I posted that, else I would have said simply the Harrier add-on, or the one from Hawker-Siddley.
