Delrin Cradle Bushings for S550 Mustangs
BK048

Minimize wheelhop, improve handling, and enhance the rear stability of your 2015 Mustang with Delrin Cradle Bushings from BMR Suspension. Stock rubber bushings with voids are great for minimizing NVH, but deflect tremendously. This causes wheelhop, which reduces traction and can damage rear suspension parts. Designed from solid Delrin, BMR’s cradle bushings center the cradle and eliminate deflection caused by the stock rubber bushings. BMR Delrin Cradle Bushings (BK048) solidly connect the cradle to the chassis, eliminating deflection and transferring more power to the tires. BMR designed the BK048 for street performance, drag race, and handling applications, making them the perfect wheelhop solution for any performance-based S550 Mustang. Each bushing is machined to strict tolerances, which ensures high quality and an exact fit. These bushings eliminates all cradle movement, reducing wheelhop and increases handling stability, while giving you a much-improved overall feel with moderate increases in NVH. Installation time is about 3-4 hours. Proudly made in the U.S.A.!

On a scale 1 to 10 if the stock bushings are a 1 and solid aluminum bushing are 10 where would you put the poly and the delrin bushings. And in terms of NVH are the delrin noticeably louder than the poly? Have to tried the different cradle bushings with the stock rubber differential bushings? Is the differential making more NVH or the suspension. The cradle bushings isolate the suspension from the chassis and the differential but the differential bushings only isolate the differential. Your prices are super reasonable on all these kits.

Definitely curious on the NVH change on a 1-10 range compared to stock.

This is pretty simple. Delrin is a pretty common bushing material.

Hey BMR I had an idea last night. So those keen enough to be using lowered engine mounts, and even lowering their transmission might be interested in lowering the diff as well. How about some bushings with offset holes to achieve this?

Potential problems I don't know the answer to and don't have a car to check: Would there be interference problems? I don't know of a way to fix the rotation of the bushings, not sure if it would be required, but it likely would.

so according to dan@hypermotive, who spoke with you guys about the kit i received, there has been a change not captured in the current instructions. haven't installed mine yet (waiting for diff bushings and new diff), but wondering what location/combination i need to install these parts (shortest sleeve, two medium sized bushings in place of the larger ones, etc):

What he has looks completely different to the instructions though... Hence why he asked about a change, I imagine.

One really short sleeve and three long ones, and four medium-height bushings not four tallest as instructions say.
^this. i already had the instructions, prompting my questions :)

... and it's actually these instructions i was referring to, although they appear to be the same as the other one linked:
http://www.bmrsuspension.com/siteart/install/BK048.pdf

my initial suspicion was that i received an improperly assembled kit, but dan's response after speaking with BMR has me puzzled..

I should have paid attention to your picture. Talk to Kelly and he will straighten it out

You need 4 of tall Delrin inserts on the far left of your second picture. Then 2 and 2 of the others.

The sleeves are also incorrect as well.

I can also see that they include new bolts now instead of reusing the OEM ones.

My kit had two incorrect inserts as well and Kelly took care of it.

Sorry for the confusion guys. This process has been a little complicated, but right now here is how the bushings mount.

Front:
Medium Thickness Bushing Top/Bottom

Rear:
Thin Bushing Top
Thickest Bushing Bottom

Our site has some good pics, check them out.

As for the sleeves, we simply sent the wrong one to the customer above. All (4) sleeves should now be the same.
