Reply to "Red Urethane Decay"

I don’t like red urethane and whenever humanly possible I avoid it; especially the steering coupler and the rear torsion bar bushings. I try to use OEM rubber whenever I can but for this application this is the only alternative. I expect to have to do the same sometime with my front anti sway bar bushings. My car didn’t have one from the VS shop back in 2004 and, not knowing better, instead of sourcing a stock anti sway bar with the regular rubber bushings I went to my VW shop and got a Bugpack (now part of EMPI) 3/4” dia unit with the stainless steel clamps/ red urethane mounting kit. Live and learn. Ironically those don’t look bad as the compensator pads did, ironically you would think they are more exposed to the elements.
