Polly bushings
I'm planning on replacing my control arms and radius rods with the control arm kit 92249538. My question to those that have done it or felt it, how harsh or how much NVH will I get from replacing the stock bushing in those arms with Polly bushings...BMR or Whiteline I figure. I already have an FE3/Tein set up with Polly strut top bushings and BMR rear sway. It's my DD and I don't want to get too crazy with NVH but I do enjoy how its much more stable and planted now with just enough firmness.
Most the noise will come from the top strut bushings.
The noise from the control arms or rack isn't as significant as the strut. But it will add a little. Not to much to worry about.
This is my opinion and may vary from others.

Yeah, actually I did pick up quite a bit from the strut bushing, so much so that I felt I had bad mounts...I then replaced all my motor and trans mountsOriginally Posted by BuildItYourSelf
to realize they were OK. So I'm living with some NVH. Good to know poly in the arms won't increase much and I think it's the proper compliment to the poly top bushing.
Yeah. If your trying to reduce the noise you can put sound mat on the firewall and the fender wells that connects the strut mounts to the firewall and a piller.
It will help a bit.
Spring isolaters will also help with the noise
