Polyurethane Bushing Kits - Chevy Trucks
 
I have a 1996 Tahoe 2-dr. The trucks has some years on it, but is in excellent condition for it's age. I know the suspension parts are beginning to wear, but I don't want to do a lift, I'd like to keep it as stock as possible. I am contemplating a Polyurethane Bushing kit.

What are some decent brands, or are they essentially all the same?

Thanks in advance.

Energy Suspension is tops when it comes to poly bushing.
BUT be warned, they will quite a bit of noise.

Jarrod,
Noise meaning they get squeaky?

Yes, they squeak like crazy after the installation lube wears out.

Trace is exactly right.

Buy the OEM bushings and enjoy it for another 14 years.

Aftermarket bushings will squeak....

They'll also have to be pressed in, so either plan to spend a bunch of time, or pay someone to do it.
