    Just wondering what's the best body mount bushings - I need a set. I see "prothane" bushings and some even use metal pucks? Love to know you guys experience with replacing these bushings?

    Polyurethane bushings for my cj6, worked great...... Metal bushings?, recipe for disaster I'd think

    X2, I'm in the process of swapping all my bushings to Poly, like them so far.

    I was poking around the local marine supply and found some of the hard rubber rollers that guide a boat onto a boat trailer.

    and they even have holes in the middle

    I figure I can cut them close to the stock height as needed so I can make the mounts fit like they should.
