Suspension Delrin Lca Bushing Failure

[HISSIN50]

Hello,

I'm just looking for some feedback. Has anyone had a Delrin front LCA bushing crap out on them? I just had a failure at 45K miles. I've got them in another car (double wishbone, been installed for almost 20 years and golden). What kind of lifespan are you getting out of them?

Thanks.

Delrin? Or do you mean polyurethane. Delrin is very hard and therefore can break if its not used in a precision fit. Seems to me it would transmit a lot of noise and vibration especially in a unibody Mustang. That's why you see poly used widely in suspensions.

Delrin. I'm not a big fan of poly (not much perceived difference over the higher-durometer rated stock bushings [Cobra] and it gets noisy).
