I am planning to install a new bushing kit in my rear suspension. I know Pioneer performance sells these but is there any others out there & perhaps that make a better kit with different material for my 2002 Viper.
Thank's in advance

You'll find that the bushings aren't worn out. They were just never fitted properly from the get-go. Cut up some pop cans in strips & shim it up nice and snug. Scissors work just fine.
make shure you check the relay rods (bars beside shock) as the bushings for those do not come in the kit. if yours is a pure 02 viper, they will have needle bearings in both rods. my brothers 02 only had them in one rod. the relay ones I have to replace every 2-3 seasons as they wear egg shaped and could not be shimmed in my case.
the pioneer kit is actually all Yamaha oe bushings. bought one for 02 viper and war 2 years ago. just had to redo lower w arm bushings on war. brother sold the viper but his was fine as I had added a grease fitting to his lower w-arm bushings and they where lasting well.
