So I got my prothane bushings. Couple questions..
the part #s i have are
14-1115
14-1116
im installing these along with stillen sway bars that i have coming in into my g35.
i want to do the install myself, albeit with professional guidance, and had a few questions:
1. they came with grease, which i assume i use as a lubricant between the stillen sway bars im getting and the brushings, correct?
2. they feel like soft rubber? i have no experience with polyurethane.. is this normal? i thought it would be stiffer
how is this better than whats in my car now? why wouldnt a G or Z come with this stuff stock?
3. the bushings are cut, which i assume is for me to easily get the swaybars inside them. i feel like a newbie asking this, but i just want to make sure its normal

2. Soft? Well I guess that's up to one's perception. I have a front set off the car since I am now running a Hotchkis bar in the front and I just checked them out because of your comment. Soft is not a word I'd use, they are firmer then oem. Other then that I don't what to tell you.
