I'm in the process of doing the red pill and mm has 2 sets of control arm bushings the urethane and Delphin aluminum. Besides the price what is the major difference in the two?. The urethane bushings are $79.99 and the Delphin Aluminum are $550.00 for the upper and lower bushings in the control arms.

urethane does not belong in a control arm bushing. (frankly, its barely suitable as an antiroll bar bushing but its what we have) in a control arm mounting point, it will get hammered out in no time. then why do they sell it? because people keep asking for it and they're after all, in business to make a profit.
go with the delrin. anytime its an articulating joint and you cant go with a spherical bearing, go with a delrin bushing.
delrin is basically solid teflon (to oversimplify)

Isn't teflon a liquid and will deform over time?

ive only seen it in a powder. and i was oversimplyfing. delrin is a frictionless material thats machinable.
you can get both the upper and lower for bout 350.00 shipped. go to the cobra "r" forums and check out the thread started by ac427cobra. i bought his set and have no problems at all. made go to the drags on street tires more consistant.
