except urethane compression rod bushings are not what you want - they will bind. We looked into making them a few years ago, and ended up not moving ahead with it because you just couldn't get a bushing material that would allow the full range of motion given it's offset type design. Stock rubber, or a solid design that allows independent articulation like SPL are really the only 2 plausible ways to go.

I'd sooner use stock ones again

all of this is really just guesswork, and you're possibly throwing money away. Your safest best is not to buy anything, get the car on an alignment rack, check the specs, and examine the bushings in detail...all of them. Cars don't hold alignments forever, and some cars do a better job than others. Also highly dependent on how well it was done the last time

That is a good advice...

How come not using urethane compression rod bushings over stock ? Ride quality?

Guess I should throw the car in for alignment
