NEW PRODUCT: H3 Lower Control arm bushings

[atvspeed4]

After having many poly bushings fail on our own rigs and our friends trucks we developed a set of UHMW carbon black bushings you should never have to replace. We have been running our first set since 2018 and they are still as tight as new. This was on our 6.0L swapped 2006 that saw heavy towing, tons of wheeling and daily driving in our wonderful salt covered roads. Stock bushings and poly bushings allow the tire to move back in the wheel well during heavy braking and forwards during high torque crawling. This dramatically changes suspension geometry and handling.

Kit includes enough bushings to do both sides lower control arms:

*this product was one of the few required pieces we were waiting for to get the HD front diff to market to control unwanted CV plunge getting closer now

Nice!

Anything possibly in the works for the leaf springs? OEM stock is drying up and the siberian poly things are all but out of stock as well

Great news! I went through at least three sets of LCA bushings on my H3 during it's lifetime - which was only Sunday trips to the farmer's market.

How many of these kits are you making? Do I need to buy this now or can I wait a couple months?

We did a small run to start it was really to get these in hand so we can get the front diffs closer to being listed for sale and had to buy a larger run. I would buy sooner than later if money allows. We are finding that the market is...changing....for this platform. More of people complaining that their 20 yr old vehicle with high mileage and minimal maintenance is now unreliable vs when we started and people were wheeling $20-40k H3s and meticulously maintaining them.

Unfortunately not, the material we are using is not a good fit for this application. Didnt someone a long time ago find a generic bushing that fit? I found that we usually snapped the leaf spring before the bushings wore out so we usually got new bushings with the packs every few years.
