Ten,

I looked and could not decide how you are using your suspension. I think the bushings vs Heims decision depends on what you plan to do with the car.

I see a racer (above) says Heims. I'd agree.

I'm a street/track day user, so I go for bushings.

I'll give some generalities about why:

Bushings require no maintenance if they are original equipment quality or better. They don't corrode. There are stiffer ones available for some applications for a bit more precision in locating the articulated arms. Stay away from the red ones - they tend to squeak after a number of miles.

Heims require frequent inspections, lube and replacement. There are some shields available to retain lube better, and to resist intrusion of unwelcome liquids such as road water and salts.

Heims locate the moving parts much more precisely than bushings; good for track usage.

Bushings are quieter in operation and more shock load resistant.

See a pattern here?

Hope this helps,

Tom
