Plastic swinger bushings... any good??

[MX450]

Anyone ever used these? They replace the dust caps/bearings/ seals in the swinger.

what brand are those?

I am planning on getting these for my A arms are they any good. They seem like a good idea you can drill a hole tap it and put grease fittings in. It seems like it should be good!

juss so you know. the new plastics that is being used for this is a self lubing type that really doesnt require greasing but, a lil extra lube surely wouldnt hurt.

also on a side note...... i preferre the busshings that utilize the factory style hinge/crush pins.

Who runs these bushings and how do they holdup? Are they better than the stock setup?

i've run them on the a-arms with great success. i'm about to run them for the first time on the swinger. so i have no experience with that. i'm curious to find out. :cool:
