2001 XKR Strut Bushings?
I started the job today of replacing the all the suspension bushings and found that the Strut bushings are bad. My struts seemed to be fine the was no bounce what so ever. However the strut bushings are shot. Has anyone replaced the the bushings with a cheaper polyurethane bushing. I did find some replacement ones on parts geek at $70 each. Seems a little pricey to me. I'm looking for a cheaper alternative.

I'm in the same boat, looking to replace mine too. Right now I'm just trying to prioritize which bushings to do first. These look pretty easy, except that I suppose you have to separate the ball joint.
Poly bushings - check out PowerFlex brand for a comparison.
I've seen folks mention $25 per rubber bushing OEM specs ($$ is approximate).
I agree most sites seem to charge a ridiculous amount for these little guys, and we do need 4 of them.
That's all I've gathered so far.
