they're collars not solid bushings.

thanks guys. is there a major difference between both? People say your ride will be harsher with these on. I can't tell since day 1 I have these lol.

I wanted to know because I bought AMS subframe bushing kit and my friend needed that kit so I wanted to make sure before selling mine.

As far as my knowledge goes Collars get take up the slack in the Oem subframe Bushings. AKA a bandaid, untill you get replacments. Best just to swap out for new ones while your down there.

I wouldn't call it a 'bandaid fix' because it allows some flex for NVH reduction while keeping things nice and tight.

FULL metal is just too harsh for street use. Polyurethane is the best IMO.
