Anyone having problems with bushings in the rear end of your Mustang. I was told to get an aftermarket set. My car squeaks like a girl in bed with John Holmes. I was looking at Steeda stuff.

Yeah, I noticed mine doing that too, especially when going over bumps/etc.
I was thinking about Steeda too, but I'll wait to see what other people have to say. Steeda has been really pissing me off the past couple weeks, giving me the run-around about my pulleys and timing adjuster. Their support staff sucks.

I installed steeda's rear bushings w/ no problems. Pretty tedious work but a good overall outcome. They are the only company that I found that you can replace this bushing yourself and dont have to have a shop press out the old and in the new bushing. I never had a sqeak and still dont but before I would go through installing another set of these I would make sure that it's that bushing making all that noise before i replaced it. Stock rubber doesn't sqeak too often.

i've done the steeda's too, went with Adjustable upper control arms,and aluminum lowers.. everything is straight forward... other than drilling/burning out your stock upper bushing connected to your rear end housing... best best is to take a drill bit and hit the edges of the bushing and let the drill work its way around the entire bushing.. it should come right out after this..
