Subject: Ghia pet.. suspension redo

Date: 	Mon, 5 Jan 1998 18:00:10 +0000



All,

 I just finished removing all of the suspension components from my 72. Rear

bearings, ball joints, bushings and rack along with some form of brake

upgrade will be done. Ball joints are a no brainer....bearings will be a

PPC timken conversion along with a reman rack from them, my question

concerns the bushings.. O.E. or poly/graphite ???? do the "polys" make the

car considerable less compliant (harsh?). Any feedback would be

appreciated. Brake upgrade?? who knows....it depends on how ugly the

upright conversion gets. Probably a Bill Wood street system from PPC.
