Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I dont think i have any increased nvh but i am running all the c2 interior sound deadening.
Leading evidence: 'Run c2 interior sound deadening' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace bushings' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

FYI the solid bushings change the geometry enough that if you're running an IMS Solution, the sway bar will interfere with the oil feed line.

Can you use same tool for installation of new bushings?
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Wanted to share my setup for removing these bushings.
1/2” threaded rod
2” pipe
Deep socket on impact gun for the bottom nut.
They all came out quickly with no heat or cutting.
Stock are not available. I don�t think it�s something that would wear out. The 20 year old ones looked good.
Powerflex makes urethane.
Solid is what I�m putting in. The car is track only.
Here is the article explaining one of the benefits of using solid which lower the chassis.
Will post photos of the new ones when they are in.

Not to take over hbdunn's thread, but as a point of comparison, I'm putting in Powerflex urethane purple (street) bushings. They also have harder durometer black (track) bushings. I'm not serious enough to go solid!
I'm posting my suspension refresh work here:

Why am I replacing bushings? Well they are 17 years old, and by the time I get in far enough to see them, even if they're good, I might was well replace them at that point. Basically I have a "While I'm in there" addiction.
I'm excited to see pics of the solid ones going in!
FYI the solid bushings change the geometry enough that if you're running an IMS Solution, the sway bar will interfere with the oil feed line. Found that out last winter...
On a related note, I've still got a set of solid bushing subframes for sale if anyone is interested.
