What is the difference between rubber and polyurethane body mount bushings?

Rubber body mount bushings deliver softer vibration damping and OEM-style ride comfort, while polyurethane bushings provide longer operational life, resist cracking from oils and weather, and reduce body roll during cornering. Energy Suspension's Hyper-Flex polyurethane offers superior durability and resistance to contaminants.

Do Energy Suspension body bushing kits come with replacement mounting hardware?

Kit contents vary by manufacturer; complete sets typically include heavy-duty washers and inner sleeves, while partial kits include only the elastomeric bushing pairs designed to reuse factory bolts. This specific set (7.1117G) is for the bushings themselves.

How to choose the right suspension bushings for my vehicle in India?

Consider your driving needs: polyurethane offers superior durability against heat and humidity, ideal for Indian conditions, while rubber provides softer ride comfort. Ensure the kit is compatible with your specific vehicle make, model, and chassis generation.

Are Energy Suspension bushings safe for daily use in India?

Yes, Energy Suspension's Hyper-Flex polyurethane components are engineered for durability and resistance to common contaminants like road salt and oil, making them suitable for daily use in various Indian climates. They are designed to outlast rubber bushings.

Can I use Energy Suspension rear sub-frame bushings for off-road applications?

Yes, these polyurethane bushings are performance-tested and race-proven, making them an excellent choice for modifying vehicles for off-road use or heavy-duty applications where enhanced durability and stiffness are required.

Key Features

Durability is superior for cars, trucks and SUVs; road salt, oil, and a host of other common under car contaminants will eventually destroy the rubber bushings on your vehicles, not to mention the weight and torque forces that typically compress rubber
Hyper-Flex replacement polyurethane components stand up well to contaminants that often destroy rubber and have been engineered to give longer-lasting performance and not compress permanently
Hyper-Flex is offered in a variety of durometers (firmness or softness), depending on product application; performance tested and race proven; used for all of Energy Suspension products that require a higher level of performance and durability
If you are modifying, building a new vehicle for scratch or restoring an old one, Energy Suspension's Hyper-Flex performance polyurethane should be the 'ground zero' focus of your present and next vehicle plans
Over two decades of in-house experience in innovating, engineering and formulating wide selection of polyurethane components for many different industries, Energy Suspension has qualified as premier manufacturer of the high quality polyurethane products

Why choose this product

Superior Polyurethane Engineering

Energy Suspension's Hyper-Flex polyurethane is specifically formulated to outperform standard rubber. It resists degradation from common automotive contaminants like road salt, oil, and fuel, which can quickly break down rubber components. Unlike rubber, polyurethane does not compress permanently under load, maintaining its shape and function over time. This means a more consistent and reliable suspension performance, crucial for vehicles operating in diverse Indian climates. The brand's extensive experience in innovating and engineering polyurethane solutions ensures a high-quality product designed for longevity and demanding use.

Who Should Install These Bushings

These rear sub-frame bushings are ideal for vehicle owners looking to enhance suspension performance, durability, and handling. They are perfect for those modifying their trucks or SUVs for off-road use, building a custom vehicle from scratch, or restoring an older car that requires robust suspension upgrades. If you experience premature wear or degradation of rubber bushings due to environmental factors or heavy use, these polyurethane components offer a superior, longer-lasting solution. Consider these if you prioritize a stiffer suspension feel and improved resistance to contaminants. If you require maximum vibration isolation for a luxury ride, traditional rubber might be preferred, though these offer a significant upgrade in durability.

How to use

Prepare for Installation — Safely lift and support the vehicle using jack stands. Identify the rear sub-frame mounting points. It is highly recommended to consult your vehicle's service manual for specific torque specifications and procedures.
Remove Old Bushings — Carefully remove the old, worn-out rubber bushings from the sub-frame and chassis mounting points. This may involve pressing them out or cutting them if they are seized or degraded.
Install New Bushings — Install the new Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings into the sub-frame and chassis. Ensure they are seated correctly and oriented as per the manufacturer's instructions. Lubricate with appropriate grease if recommended.
Reassemble and Torque — Reinstall the sub-frame, aligning it with the chassis mounts. Use new or reconditioned hardware if provided or recommended. Tighten all bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque settings to ensure proper function and safety.
