hey,
read a few posts that mention body bushing replacement as a really good mod and worth while. a few questions:

1. how difficult is this mod?
2. what bushings to use? material and so forth. where to get them?
3. do SS and 9C1 use same parts?

thanks in advance

It's not a very hard mod to do (I haven't done it yet, just read about it). You don't need many tools either. A ratchet, couple extensions, some penitrating lube.
I don't think the car has to be off the ground to do this mod, but I bet it'd make life a bit easier.

One tip, when removing the bolts, be careful. When your unscrewing them, if they get hard to turn, run them back in a few turns, then come back out. Might save a stripped nut or broken bolt.

Get the bushsings for a 9C1, the SS is missing a few bushings that the 9C1's got.

You'll probably get a lot of opinions about what material. Some say use the OEM rubber ones. Some say use Polly. Personally I'll probably go with the stock rubber ones.
