I hate to say it but after 5 years, I was surprised of how gritty/dirty they were inside when I removed them. They were not smooth functioning at all. It seems that the grease compounds the problem, it's letting dirt/grit get stuck in there. You could hear the "grittiness" when you rotated them. I greased them regularly and it was nasty looking inside. I wonder what a street car's looks like after seeing rain/etc. Yes, my car is a race car, but it only saw "Hours" on the track each year, not 10K-15K miles a street car can see. I just makes me wonder.

So thats why I decided to go with Rebel Racing RSR bushings front and rear. Time will tell if those will get all gritty, but I know one thing- I don't have to grease them (or loose a Zerk fitting each time). Plus Clint will replace the bushing material if I ever have problems. +1 for me.

***Please note I am not "Bashing" the Polybronze. I am just relaying my personal experience with them.

Interesting. That was one of my concerns (grease holding grit) about the polybronze that led me to the Rebel Racing parts.
