Any interest on some Racing duty thrust arm bushings?

I removed the entire rear subframe 3 years ago when I installed my Quaiffe 3.46 differential. I had all new bushings pressed in while the subframe was out. New dogbones too. I drive it on the track a lot, and it doesn't seem loose or sloppy. When I installed the rings, the car was on jack stands under the subframe. I don't know whether the gap decreased when the car was back on the ground, but it handled fine. I even got a few complements on how well balanced the suspesion setup was.

Nice diff... In this case, depending where the car was jacked up, the bushing could have stretched, I had another customer reporting the same thing, but when the car was back on the ground, there isn't any gap visible.
So I do think that you don't have a gap and can see the gap only while jacking up the car which stretch the bushing.

I just joined this community here. I have a few questions that I will post in another thread but I will tell you about the thrust arm bearing ride quality. I first put bearings on the lower control arm about 2 years ago and the car felt much better, much quicker turn in. Later about 1.5 years ago I put the bearings in the thrust arm (the ones posted on this thread) and the car felt great. There is not much road noise at all but the only thing I did not like is that bumps were much more harsh. IE it wasn't really road noise so much as a loud bang (but not in the bad way). I took them off because I want the Touring to be more of a cruiser. Hope this helps..
