[Shotimes] Delrin or alum?

[Ron Porter]

Those AL bushings were the Jomar units from Jon Best. Jomar is just down the
street from me in Pontiac MI.

The new bushings were from SHOnut. I'm not sure where the ASB's were
purchased from. But they don't look like the units that Midwest SHO
sells. I'd venture a guess based on descriptions that they are the 'cup'
style.

And ya, I'm in Pittsburgh. Frankly, I didn't mind the ride quality at
all. I really didn't notice that big a difference when going from the
ASB's to the G3 units. But the noise irritated the shit outta me!

You live in the northern part of the country, right?  Down here it's
probably not as much of an issue.  But out of curiousity, where did you
source your bushings from?
