What is the main benefit of using polyurethane bushings over rubber?

Polyurethane bushings are more rigid than stock rubber bushings. This increased stiffness helps maintain suspension geometry under load, leading to improved handling and a more direct feel from the road. They also tend to last longer and resist degradation from oils and road salt.

Does this kit include all the suspension bushings for the car?

This is a 'Total Kit,' meaning it's designed to replace a comprehensive set of suspension bushings. It covers many of the key locations in the front and rear suspension systems.

What kind of tools will I need to install these bushings?

Installing suspension bushings typically requires tools for removing old, pressed-in bushings and pressing in new ones. This can include a variety of pry bars, sockets, a press (either a bench press or a specialized bushing removal/installation tool), and general hand tools.

Product Details

If you're looking to refresh the suspension on your 1979-1982 Ford Mustang, this total bushing kit from Prothane is a solid option. It replaces all the worn-out rubber bushings throughout your car's suspension with durable polyurethane. This means you'll get a more connected feel to the road and improved handling characteristics.

Prothane uses a high-density polyurethane material that's known for its longevity and resistance to the elements. Unlike stock rubber bushings that can crack and degrade over time, these polyurethane pieces will hold their shape and maintain their stiffness, which is crucial for keeping your suspension geometry consistent. This kit is designed to be a comprehensive replacement, covering many of the key suspension points on your Mustang.

When you're installing these, you'll want to make sure you have the right tools to remove the old bushings and press in the new ones. It's a job that requires some patience, but the payoff in terms of a tighter-feeling car is well worth it. This kit is a great way to bring back that new-car responsiveness to your classic Mustang.
