[urq] delrin C/A bushings

[Wylie Bean]

I broke a rear control arm that had delrins which I presume either seized or got so stiff that they were causing the control arm to flex instead of the bushing rotating on the metal insert.

Years ago, I had 2Bennett delrin c/a bushings in a '90 CQ with no noise problems at all. I installed pretty stiff adjustable coilovers at the same time so I can't comment on the delrin's affect by itself on handling. I do recall reading about some other type 89 owners having problems with the stamped control arms (bent? cracked?) after running the delrin a while, but I never saw a problem before I sold that car.
