What are the pros and cons of the bushing sets available from the club store versus the bushings available from Delta?

Thanks,

Depends on what you're after. The Jensen Healey came with Metalastic bushings originally, those are NLA. Some owners complained the ride was a bit soft. The Super Pro bushings are not as soft as the Metalastik and not nearly as hard as the Prothane bushings. The Super Pros give the car a great ride without being harsh or making your fillings become loose and are also an excellent fit.

Brian,

I second Greg's information here.  I just put a full set of Super Pro's throughout the front end of mine.  I combined these with new 205/60 Sumitomo tires from Tire Rack, and a first class wheel alignment from a shop that has good experience aligning classic cars.  It's hard to beat the results.  The ride is REALLY smooth, yet you can "feel the road" just fine.  And to run the car through some tight corners...it's pure JH magic!
