Prothane 79-98 Chevy Cobra IRS Subframe Bushings - Red

If you're looking to firm up the rear end of your 1979-1998 Ford Mustang, especially if you're working with the Independent Rear Suspension (IRS), replacing the stock rubber subframe bushings is a smart move. These Prothane polyurethane bushings are designed to replace the original, often worn-out, rubber components that connect the IRS subframe to the chassis. By using a stiffer material like polyurethane, you reduce the flex and movement in the subframe, which can make a noticeable difference in how the car handles during cornering and acceleration.

Prothane has been making suspension components for a long time, and these bushings are made from their durable red polyurethane. This material is known for being more resistant to wear and tear than stock rubber, and it won't degrade as quickly from exposure to road grime and temperature changes. Installing these will give you a more solid connection between the subframe and the body, leading to a more direct feel from the rear suspension. It's a popular upgrade for anyone looking to improve their Mustang's performance without going to a full race setup.

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 a bit of patience, but the result is a more responsive and stable rear end for your Mustang.
