I just don't get the reasoning for trying to convince yourself that they'll be good. I don't think its worth the headache or the hassle. Chances are in a year you'll be replacing them after they start to fall apart. Even the guys that make bushings as a primary source of income have issues with their bushings once in a while, and you're expecting a huge company like ECS that puts their foot into everything, and makes it worse, to make a decent bushing. I've had a BFI dogbone mount turn into dust and plenty of people out there have had issues with 034 motor mounts.
ECS is mostly fine to order from...I just wouldn't bother with the parts they've branded as theirs.
Do it nice or do it twice will be the lesson learned.
Where are these "chances" your referring to coming from ??
And how do you know they "make it worse", please tell me.
I'm aware every aftermarket has issues on occasion, so I'm just trying to figure out why ECS is on the chopping block 24/7 with no real sources...
This 100%.
Why are you trying to see a reason to use them so hard? I don't see any substantial cost benefit for ecs bushings over others.. What's the logic here???
I'm not trying to see a reason to use them I'm trying to see a reason not to. At this point I'm just trying to see if yes indeed ECS sucks or if its all because one person made a comment "ECS = bad" and everyone has just accepted it at this point.
Hence the main reason of this post being opinions from experience on ECS
Bushings. I don't care if their side marker fitment is bad, or which idiot spec'ed their fitment catalog.
