It seems like any sort of performance upgrade one would make to a C7 Corvette would be pretty complicated and expensive, right? After all they are the current generation Corvette and represent a halo car in the GM portfolio so that means all the most advanced stuff that they have to offer. As it turns out there’s one place where the car are not all that advanced and the crew at RideTech has figured out how to improve performance and allow you, yes YOU to do the work. It is all in the bushings, baby!
While they are in places where no one can see them and they are not as sexy as some parts, bushings are absolutely crucial to the functionality of a suspension system. If you have stiction happening with the standard bushings or the material is deflecting under load, it is changing the geometry of the suspension and not for the better.
RideTech uses Delrin. It is a fantastic material that can be precision machined and out performs virtually every other material out there for defection, stiction resistance, and ease of maintenance. This is a big win and an easy install!
