Been there, done that. Nothing ruins the ride quite like the Urethane bushes does.
And to top it of, they squeak.

Re: C4 Bushings 1984-1996
After 4 years squeaking went away. As for the ride quality, i never had any complaint. Fact that I have a 94 with softer springs may have affected lack of ride quality deterioration.

Re: C4 Bushings 1984-1996
Curiosity got the best of me so I ordered a set to see if they are any better than the polyurethane bushings I have now. Will keep the group posted how the installation turns out.

If these pan out Corvette Parts Center said they open to doing a group buy if enough guys are interested. Nice winter project.
