If you do a search (can't remember if it's here or in .com), you will find that the subframe brakets are interchangeable regardless of year (91-95) and 2dr or 4dr. The only difference is the stiffness of the rubber bushings. Even the front beam was superceded by the new one ("type II"), which just has the nuts welded on for the front center motor mount (if needed you use them, if not it's just used as the "type I"). What is definately different, depending on year and model, is the front mounts and the brackets that connect the engine to the mounts. Look it up and you'll see. I think SR5GUY, as well as many other knowledgable members participated in that thread, and (don't quote me on this) I could almost swear that you did as well.
Btw not trying to discredit you, just trying to get the right info out there.

I found the thread here: http://forums.acuralegend.org/suspension-t16998p2.html, but there has also been some on .com that I participated in also.
Read post #20 (a response to a post I made) right after a post you made.

I think you are correct. It's the brackets in front of the LCA bushings that has been changed from 94-95 because of the different motor mounts.

[like no other]

Did anyone's poly filled radius bushing last or rather how long?

When I was doing research a few months ago for these mounts I found a company that would take the stock ones burn out the old rubber, mold and heat treat in new poly in whatever grade you wanted. It was around $250 for a pair but I can't find where I put the damn info. hgeez:

[like no other]

So I guess I can take it that anyone with poly fill radius mounts lasted a while

[GreekPower]

I did mine, it lasts but u gotta make sure u do it right or it will fuck up. I did one side twice because it would pop out

Success!!! hyundai sonata bushings installed. Now just gotta modify a lil more and were golden

[Dreams94coupe]

Whats the part number and what is needed in order to do this?

[Legend37]

Those are the Hyundai bushings that have been mentioned in several threads, they run around $24/each. The outer diameter of them need to be shaved a few tenths of a millimeter in order to fit into the housing on the Legend bracket. Jon, I would love some full details, please! The machine shop said they could get it done, but it would cost me around $350 for the labor.

[GreekPower]

freeze the bushing and pop it in... thats what I heard he was gonna do.
