Energy Suspension Shock Mount Bushings
Shocks are actually part of a two-component system; your coil springs and shocks work together to maintain your control over the vehicle on rough surfaces while also smoothing out your ride. Your shocks are connected to the frame with a set of shock mount bushings. These bushings allow your shock to perform at it's best while also helping to reduce road vibrations.
While many OE shock mount bushings are made of rubber, Energy Suspension makes bushings with their Hyperflex polyurethane. Rubber is a softer material that's better for reducing vibrations but doesn't last long when pitted against high-stress environments. Hyperflex polyurethane, on the other hand, is much more durable than rubber, easily able to withstand both physical wear and road contamination. This added durability also means an increase to firmness and, by extension, NVH. However, the enhanced dependability of your suspension is often worth a slight increase to vibration. Plus, Energy Suspension covers all of their shock mount bushings with a two-year warranty handled in-house here at DST.

I used these bushings for a 1997 Polaris Indy Classic. The main shock on the rear suspension is made by Gabriel; they dont make snowmobile shocks anymore and want nothing to do with it. In addition Polaris had no part number for these bushings, only for the entire shock. So I found these bushings with the correct inside diameter, but the outside diameter was too large for the shock eye. I then mounted a bushing on the end of my drill press using the bolt from the suspension and turned down the outside diameter using a wood rasp, it worked well. I have no idea how long it will last but the material is pretty stout.
