August 6, 2008 Due to a lack of interest on our part, we have not been maintaining this page. All our efforts are applied to the web pages. Seems like everyday we are changing something on the web site. The latest rumor we have heard is that Energy Suspension is in the process of developing the body mount set for 61-64 Chevrolet Impala.
The economy sucks, but we are still running along smoothly. We have the largest inventory and will maintain it through what some are saying will be a slow time, although we have not seen it slow down yet. In our over 25 years in business we have seen slow times and have always survived and we will survive this one as well. Thanks for your support.
We just finished updating all the Prothane part numbers. we will tackle the Airlift part numbers next, as there was a price increase on August 1, 2008.
June 26, 2006 Apparently, Dragonwerks does not exist. They will not return our phone calls or respond to email.
Energy Suspension is planning to release a new catalog in about 4 months. They are also planning to increase prices. E.S. has plans to offer a 4.3L V-6 motor mount for the S-10. We were the first to have the 2.8L mount in stock, and hope to be the first with the 4.3L mount, when it is available.
We are working with Hellwig Products Co. and hope to offer their line of spring steel sway bars, in the near future.
December 6, 2005 R.T.R.S. has now become Dragonwerks. We plan to carry there bushings again, as soon as their production is going again. We have been updating several web pages with new part numbers and prices. Everything is a current as we can make it.
August 12, 2005 R.T.RS. has just announced that they have stopped making BMW bushings. The company is for sale.
We like their bushings. We have not had any problems with their product and wish they would continue making bushings. Unless someone purchases the business we will not be able to ship any of their bushings, when our current stock is depleted.
We are in the process of updating the web site with shipping weights of every part number and a chart to estimate the cost of shipping within the 48 states of the USA. We continue to add new part numbers when available.

February 26, 2005 Just finished updating the entire Energy Suspension online catalog, with new prices and part numbers. Enjoy. As soon as we receive some new RTRS part numbers we will be updating the RTRS catalog. Energy Suspension just re-introduced the 7-7105 Nissan tension rod bushing set as a 3 piece design, instead of the one piece design. The 3 piece design will allow some flexibility when the car is cornering, so the bolts on the control arms will not break. But the hard inner bushings will not allow caster change.

January 16, 2004 We finally received the VW 15-3118 rear control arm bushings. We purchased all of the remaining inventory of blue and yellow bushings that were laying around the Energy Suspension factory.
RTRS says they are coming out with some new BMW bushings in 2004. As usual we told them to ship us any new parts, as soon as they are available. When we receive the new bushings, we will list them on the RTRS BMW page

October 10, 2003 You may have noticed we have taken on a new line of poly bushings for the BMW cars.
RTRS is a small manufacturer. They are dedicated to quality and BMW. We have all the bushings in stock.
Energy Suspension has not really been working on very many new part numbers. They usually announce several new parts during the SEMA convention in Las Vegas, NV. every November. We have the new 7-1112 Sentra motor mounts in stock, the Saturn, Subaru WRX and even the one Volvo part number. I will make a page for the Volvo, but don't get your hopes up for more bushings, I don't think they are interested in Volvo. Yes, the 15-1105 VW Motor mount inserts will fit the Audi TT 2.0L. We put up a new page with an inventory of all the Yellow & Blue bushings that we have. E.S. keeps telling us they are going to make the rear control arm bushings for the new VW Beetle, we keep ordering them, but they still have not put them in production. So we wait and wait and wait. I think we have been waiting for 2 years now.
Prothane just emailed us some information about their latest new parts, we have already ordered them. Dodge Dakota 4 wd control arm bushings, 2000-03 Mit. Eclipse V-6 motor mounts, Ford Mustang motor mounts for the 65-73 small block motors(HP289? I will have to compare to the ones on my engine. Does anyone want to buy my '65 289HP motor? Low miles, only raced on Sundays), Ford Mustang 4.6L eng. motor mounts are coming, as well as the 99 Mustang Cobra IRS control arm bushings. Dodge Ram 2.00" coil spring lift isolators. Nissan 350Z sway bar bushings(could there be more coming???).

September 24, 2002 E.S. has filled almost all of our back orders. We are still having problems with yellow and blue bushings. The new VW control arm and sway bar bushings are difficult to receive. But, you can name almost any E.S. part number and we have several in stock. We have heard that there are some new part numbers coming, but at this time of year, E.S. usually wants to wait until the SEMA show in Las Vegas, NV.(Nov.,'02) to announce and release the new part numbers

July 23, 2002 We are almost back to our normal fully stocked warehouse of Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings. There are a still a few bushings that E.S. has not sent, but we have lots of almost every part number.

June 14, 2002 E.S. is expanding production facilities to meet customers increased demand. By the middle of July they will have everything in operation, just to make more poly urethane bushings. We will be so happy!!!! More bushings for everyone is a good thing.
April 10, 2002 Energy Suspension has just announced, they will no longer offer polyurethane bushings in the color blue or yellow. From this date on, they will make black or red only. Blue and yellow parts made up such a small amount of orders, that they decided it was not worth interrupting the manufacturing process to make a few blue and yellow bushings.

Everything else is old news to us, look at the Energy Suspension catalog to find out if the bushings you want, are available for your car or truck - we have more of them in stock than anyone else. Our online catalog is more complete than the Energy Suspension paper catalog. You want paper - hit your print key! Ours even has prices. If you look at the www.energysuspension.com web site, you will find some new part numbers listed. This is causing some confusion. E.S. is basically announcing that they INTEND to make these bushings, it does not mean they are actually in production. We like to list the parts that are actually available and in our warehouse, on our web site .

PRODUCT WEIGHT
is now included in the charts above.
1.2# means that the part number listed weighs 1 pound & 2 tenths of a pound.
We are giving this measurement, because this is how Energy Suspension has chosen to give us the weight of each part number.
1 Pound(lb.or #) = 16 ounces(oz.) divided by 10 = 1.6 oz.
This is not the shipping weight, just the weight of the part.
To estimate your shipping cost, you should round up to the next pound and usually add about a pound for shipping weight.
When we ship via UPS(United Parcel Service) we have to round up to the next pound.
UPS does not accept ounce weight, or increments of tenths.
We will always weigh your order on an electronic scale and charge you for the exact weight, rounded up to the next pound.
For USPS(United States Postal Service) shipping we also round up to the next pound.
