Werd.. go with the Poly 4link bushings.. if you need some, hit me up I'll see what I can do on working you a deal since you'd need 4 I'm guessing? Post some pics of the progress..

I'd imagine they'd be a little rough. And they probably don't pivot as well, since they're not really made for that type of thing.

This is how I made mine:

those look good twisted, but my prob was the oem mount ripped off the frame so i had to make new ones, the way i made the setup, i think it will work out, i just need to make a dust sheild for them

but to give an update, the arms are made, i just have to grind a lil more to cleam em up to fit just right, and the mounts for one side as of now are made, all i can say is these mounts should hold up much better than stock, ill post some pics of them today if i get time

Those are pretty cool. I like the mounting tabs, beefy as fuck.
