    Does anyone sell poly bushings for a 2011? I can't find them anywhere.

    I hope so too. But I think if they did we would see them for sale on their site.

    It's amazing the parts we can't get after almost 10 years of production.

    I emailed daystar as well, also no reply as if yet. I'm not really sure mine are bad, but I'd like something stiffer for a more solid front end. I'm getting some cupping type tread wear. Tire pressure and balance good, alignment was good as of last summer, ball joints good, shocks good. So I figure if I'm replacing bushings I want poly.

    Yep good point. But I'd like to get it as firm as I can, it is what it is after that. I'm just amazed that they're not readily available.

    Deff an option, way to involved for my liking. I'm good with R&R, not so much fab. If you decide to try that I'd be interested to hear how it works out though!

    So I got a set of used 05+ LCAs off here a few weeks ago. Dropped them off at my friends shop with the Whiteline bushing kit (
    $153 W53312 Front Control Arm Bushing, Black
    W53312) yesterday, and my friend just informed me that he got them pressed in with out any problems. Now I can get on with my life and get my supercharger...
