Al SFBs (Aluminum Subframe Bushings)

[DHMag]

there are 2 styles available now. the ring style, which Bruce Malachuk, aka netviper sells. and the cup style, which is sold by Bryan C King ? im not positive on that, though. both styles provide the same benefits as well as the same cons.

Pros:
-solidly mounts subframe to body.
-makes for better turn-in on steering.
-gets rid of slop caused by the factory rubber bushings.

Cons:
-increased NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness)
-removal of rubber bushings may present other problems...rusted through subframe, seized bolts, et al. which is a common consequence with any vehicle, but moreso in the rustbelt states.

prices average 80-120 without additional needed items (subframe recall kits).

known vendors:
Bruce Malachuk (netviper)
Bryan C King (Bryan C. King)
MidwestSHO (Mikeys_Taurus)

One of the best mods for the money.

Couple more vendors:

Ford Performance Specialists--original correct ring style.

There are quite a few vendors for both styles out there. I got mine from Josh @ SHO Nut and love them. Besides suspension mods (struts/springs) they are the best suspension mod I've made hands down. The effects on every day driving are incredible and I would find it very hard to go back to the mushy handling feel of stock rubber bushings.
