Has anyone used these urethane trailing arm mounts?

Same mount for S1/2 Europas as well.  No experience with these myself.

I haven't used those but it's important to reduce or eliminate the movement of suspension pickup points so those would probably be better than the stock rubber bushings. At something like $300 a set, I think I'd prefer to convert to a ball joint setup like our own Serge implemented. He describes and shows how to do it in this video: https://youtu.be/0Os40ns8NiI
