It takes 8 of them to do the rear, two bushings per pin times 4 pins (two at

The front bushings are completely different, "Silentblocs" with rubber
bonded to inner and outer steel sleeves. I don't know offhand of anyone
selling them in harder compounds, although ISTR Charles telling me they were
"working on it" a few years ago.

Yup, although I use nylon cable ties to put mine on.
