Thoughts on spring/shackle bushings, poly or rubber?

Poly will last longer.

Poly will last longer.

Polly is actually cheaper too, how about the squeaking, turning 53 so only doing them once

Shackles with greaseable pins / bolts.

Thanks, shackles and pins are in good shape, ordered a set of rubber, figure the old ones have lasted since 75,should be an improvement, cheers,and thanks again, I'm a newbie here and still learning the way around the site

Rubber with greaseable pins and bolts would be optimum. Poly might give a slightly quicker response (that's why they're used on competition cars) and last longer but will ride harder. All in, you may not notice the difference other than longevity and ability to service.
