Police SFB Report...

[WakaShoMan]

Well, I finally got all my police-style SFB's in the car. Made a HUGE difference. Turn-in is much, MUCH crisper. ****

The old stock SFB's actually were in pretty good shape. Not rotted out or anything.

I do detect a bit more NVH when I hit expansion strips on the road, though.

Interestingly my rear stock SFB's were of the "4 retaining bolt" style, so no drilling was needed.

New sfb's make a huge difference. My original bushings were in decent shape appearance wise but had become quite soft and showed plenty of play. The GenIII replacements made a night and day difference for my car. Glad you like them!

even with AL SFB's i wouldn't call the "I do detect a bit more NVH when I hit expansion strips on the road, though." a bad thing

I like being able to judge the number of inches the expansion joints are from the road feel.

sounds like the police bushings were a good idea for what you were looking for.

Could you give us some details on the Gen III bushings?? SHO, Slo, both?? Front, rear, both? Part numbers would be a real bonus. Thanks in advance.

You might also want to pick up the subframe bolt recall kit. 2 kits are required to replace all 4 bolts.
