Hey Folks, I found new design from Moog. They have new design for control arm bushings for our car. I found it online and wondering if anybody has experienced with it ?

 

I have them in my FE3 aluminum control arms. I paid around $80 for the pair from Advanced Auto. They didn't have them in stock, so I ordered them from the website and they were delivered in a couple of days.

You have to have a press to install them into the control arm; I used a huge socket (I think it was a 2.5" socket) to press the bushing into the control arm.

I've only had them for a couple thousand miles, so I can't really say much about the longevity of them. However, they have some sort of a lifetime warranty.

 

They have been out for some time now. I have their older design CAB's.

I may install these newer ones over the winter.

 

How do they hold up now ?

 

The moog cabs I've been running have been great for the 1.5 years they've been installed.

 

I have a set I am not going to use if anyone wants to buy them from me.
I ended up installing brand new TC arms instead of using them.

 

how much you looking to get for them?

 

AH CRAP! Every time there's a thread has to be jacked up again. This is not a for sale thread if you got something to sell make your own thread. Enough said.

 

Its not a thread jack when it is the exact frickin item.
Never mind then, I will just keep them since its wrong to offer the parts in question up for a big discount because I have them and do not need them.

 

 

Ok...Even if you have the same items then what's your point trying to sell in this thread when I asked about "experience" with them ?

 

They seem to be fine. I installed them about a month ago, and have put 2000 miles on them since. My stock bushings were shot for a LONG time, so it is hard for me to know how these compare to good OEM bushings. They are a solid bushing that allows for axial rotation, so you don't get the deflection of rubber bushings when cornering. Because of their solid nature, you might feel the road more, but I can't quantify that.

 

According to the MOOG part# they are listing it as a "soft ride suspension FE1" part, not FE3 or FE5. And the Moog replacement control arms for FE3/FE5 are still showing regular rubber bushings.

 

ah nevermind, just an error on rockauto's listing, K200792 is for the FE3/FE5

 

Thats not cool he didint thread jack sounds like he was offering you a good deal if you wanted them
Thread jacking would be if someone came in here and started posting pictures of goats which I would do if I had a photobucket account

Blackss I would keep them stock ones suck you'll need them soon enough

 

He wasn't only offering me, he was offering as to anyone.

 

 

 

SMH...Sigh...Ok, I get it. I apologize fair enough.

 

I have had them on for like 6 months but they r great no problems with them I would recommend them if your looking to replace

 

Here's the video of them.

 

It was such a pite doing it the first time im not gonna check these new ones out unless my current moogs fail lol. At which point id probly get a full powell setup and be done with it

 

I don't mind doing it cause I've done it many times. I had tried Powell's and his is the best 1. I have OTTP CAB in right now and the rubber piece has split open and making clunk noise if I am on really bumpy roads. I am willing to try Moog new design CAB, it doesn't hurt to try them out. Then I will know how long they last, Powell CAB last 2 1/2 years no problems, OTTP CAB only last 1 year but I will have it replace since OTTP said life time warranty. Now I am gonna try MOOG new design CAB and see how long will it last.

 

Powell's are life time as well and I want to see a picture of Powell's bad, never heard of one going.

 

Of Course, Powell's is premium quality parts.
