I ran the Del-A-lums with stock a-arms before going with the TRZ arms. Del-A-Lums are a great product. Zero deflection, almost no friction, no binding, greasable and the bushings can be replaced at a later date. The ONLY down side is cost, but a great product.

X2 & there's no harsh noises or clunking like with some steel bushings.

looking at the prices it appears that the steel are cheaper but thats cause they advertise them 1 per package you add that up and they are only about 50 dollars cheaper. i was thinking about using lower Del-a-lum and upper steel. seeing my car only goes short distances on the street i dont know if its worth the difference in cash?

$125 for the upper bushings dont seem too bad to me. Future upgrade for me i think.

I have used the steel bushings with teflon liners and they were great no binding and they were loose enough that you could flop the arms up and down with no effort... definately softened the feel and helped transfer...
