Delrin control arm bushings for '87

Who is running Delrin control arm bushings? I just started a total refresh of my '87 suspension and am looking at options. The car is getting new ball joints, turbo tie rods, Hotbits adjustable dampers, bushings and a rear T-bar upgrade.

Thanks

I just did the complete project your starting 2 months ago. I dont know if they're Delrin but I used the Rebel Racing bushings "PTFE (Teflon) impregnated self lubricating thermoplastic polymer bushing liners" and they've been great so far. I also had the Bilstein strut inserts rebuilt/revalved by Elephant and the combo has been very smooth on rough roads, no harshness what so ever. Even with Elephant strut top monoball camber plates.

I'm running an adjustable shock from a company called Hotbits. I have been their US rep/tuning center for 10 years and have had great success with them on my rally cars. They are a 46mm rear and 40mm front monotube with huge adjustment ranges so no re-valving is needed (with in reason)...
