Another success story with the Abbott poly control arm bushings!

I had these installed on my car today - they were supposed to also replace the shot front control arm bushings, but somebody screwed up. At least I got the Abbott ones in. Now I know why everyone always has such high praise for these things, often citing 'it feels like a new car!'. Well, I've never driven a new 9000, or any new Saab for that matter, so can't really compare, but my car feels more solid now than ever before. The amount of vibration over bumps, front end vibration in particularly, is orders of magnitude lower, when they say control arm, they mean it! :) Also, even after having the inner drivers replaced, I was still getting some vibration on acceleration, and also on breaking, both those are gone now. I haven't gotten the chance to really fling it around the corners and apply heavy throttle, still dealing with boost/WOT issues. But, just for the improvement in solidity and behaviour over poor roads, it's worth it! Don't delay, get these now! :)
