Question F Body Suspension

I have a 1988 Diplomat Police car, and would like to upgrade the front subframe mounts to Polyurethane. Does anyone know of a supplier for these?

Thanks!

Diplomat is an M body, but I can't answer your question

Aspen/Volare/Mirada/Cordoba/Diplomat/GranFury/5th-A... They called 'em different, but the "hard parts" are swappable! I know someone used to make that setup, but can't remember who it is!

Thanks again.....

Default Another supplier

Another supplier is Just Suspension (1-800-872-1548), ask for a Sub Frame Bushing Kit. For the no-compromise handling set-up I understand from a popular Mopar magizine that the out-of-production cast iron bushings from Direct Connection are the way to go.

That would seem to be an easy part to make on a lathe. Get a hunk of aluminum and whack away at it for a bit.

Got it fixed!!! Just Suspension had the complete set in POLY with the bolts, nuts and sleeves for $90.00. This will really help fix that mushy "General Motors" handling feel!

Thanks for the help folks!
