Message	than rubber, I assume harder than even the stiffer Nismo bushing rubber. I'm just curious what that does for the rear-end, having that extra rigidity with all the links back there. I'm thinking that they would be particularly useful in Traction rods and Toe rods. Not disparaging the Nismo bushings whatsoever, I still run several of them myself. In regards to noise, I'm nearly positive that any noise means the bushings are not greased properly. I didn't have things greased correctly myself until recently, which is why I shared the info on greasing the sleeve. I'm expecting that I will have no noise or need to re-grease any of the rear-end poly bushings for 4-5 years. If I have to re-grease them more than once every 1-2 years, I will may reconsider running them.
