Months ago I had the Steeda rear lower control arm spherical bearing put in and can’t take the NVH anymore.

Going to replace it with Steeda’s polyurethane bushings that’s a step up from OEM but causes much less clunking….

Has anyone done this without having to replace the rear lower control arm and the new poly bushing stayed intact?

Thanks

Are the poly's quiet or do they still make a bit of noise?

I installed the BMR bearings in November 2024, 7,000km on them, on crappy colombian roads, always heavy rain, and I didn't notice any NVH, I had installed lots of other mods at the same time. They're in my signature

You get noise when you close the loop and connect all the parts without rubber. People blame the last part they inatalled but its all of them. I just did spherical mains and the toe link and no noise. Added the bushings and cradle reinforcements and boom, NVH. Any of those by themselves would still be isolated by rubber in other places.
