Urethane axle beam bushing kit.

I'm about to embark on fitting adjusters and narrowing my beam by 2", during this operation I am wondering about the advantages or disadvantages of replacing the bearings with a Urethane Axle Beam Bushing Kit?

It is on a ball joint front suspension and I will also be fitting dropped spindles.

Thanks.

All i've ever had with urethane is awful squeaking and premature wear, i'd try and stick to the original bearings if I were you mate.

And that goes for almost any urethane stuff.....particularly those nasty steering couplings.

Delrin bushes is what the cool kids are using now days. Still squeaks though.
