The Chrysler LX chassis is derived from Mercedes. The car is quite capable. When driven hard by an enthusiast or on Michigan rough roads, the radius rod bushes may fatigue and fail. Pedders 28 Point Inspections with the Owner present has identified a number of radius rod bush failures on the LX chassis. This video is a demonstration of the compliance in the OE rubber bush compared to Pedders street and daily driver friendly urethane designs with Pedders Void Technology. We get this close to traditional hard urethane race car handling with almost OE like ride quality. Stability and Predictability with Comfort are the design attributes of a Pedders urethane steel jacketed bush. You can have it all with your LX -- Pedderise.

  • I traded for a 2006 300 Hemi last month. It has just 50,000 miles and no dents scratches or any blemishes anywhere on the body so I think it was a pampered garage queen. Would the car benefit from your bushing technology?

  • @dieseldog00 Yes sir. The radius bush / tension arm bush is a weak link in the LC chassis. The other is a large amount of bumpsteer which literally scrubs the rubber off the front tires. An EP2113 Bumpsteer correction kit reduces bumpsteer by roughly 90%. Aside from improved front tire life, the steering feels much more on center.
