MS6 front and rear polyurethane suspension bushings
- Thread starter phate
- Start date
Great to hear, thank you!!
Well not going to lie ordering these felt super shady! But they have an English setting and they still sell a complete kit for the 6. Spent $316 total, $100 just for shipping, selected UPS. Ordered on the 16th and showed up today (Mar 24th). Can’t wait to start on these, as I’ve got 174K miles on the chassis.

Just installed my set. Took a bit of time, but worked out well... mostly. I ended up dropping the whole rear subframe to do all the rears and the differential mounts at the same time. HOWEVER, 4-06-19621 does not fit the 2007 MS6 front LCA inboard bushing, and they do not make one for this application (yet?). I ended up getting new OEM bushings(GR1A-34-470) for that location for now as the originals weren't that worn. Is there some solution for this spot that I missed?
Their support was helpful whenever I asked questions, even if there is a significantly time zone mismatch. Took less than a month to show up when I ordered them.
Also, consider tack welding the pressed bushing sleeve to the arm, they won't shift that way. (Have water/ice nearby to prevent damage to your new bushings)

Does this look like the right bushing? Seems like the middle part wouldn't be wide enough for the edges to pop out once it got in place. I'm having hell pushing it in there. It just flares out and I'm scared to press it anymore.

I came across this thread back in July. Wondered if you could even still buy Russian products? (Or if I would even want to if I could...) But, for curiosity's sake, I sent an email to the company and asked if they can still sell/ship to USA. It took 3 months to get a response back, but I actually did just get a response. They said yes, they can still ship to USA. But I would have to pay with a credit card issued from a Russian bank. I don't have a clue how I'd get a CC from a Russian bank, nor do I think I would want to.
They have a page that lists countries that they can accept payments from local banks from, and it includes a surprising number of European countries, including Germany, Italy, Austria, Portugal. I would have figured pretty much all EU countries would have the same restrictions as USA. So, I do not really understand that. But since they do list some EU countries they can sell to, maybe it could possibly be ordered in-directly via an import/export company in one of those countries without having to get a Russian CC. But I do not think I will try. Just something that crossed my mind. In any case, below is their page detailing purchasing options:
