Is the Teflon bushing a high wear rate item. It seems I've seen a few post about replacing them.

My only point was wondering if I should stock this as a critical replacement part.

It is a often worn item. Under hard impact it may be damaged, but it protects the carbon from being damaged.
After many normal race weeks it may loosen up and need to be replaced to. After several hard weekends on mine one did need replaced, one is fine. The abuse side needed the replacement.
So it is something I think anyone carrying the parts should stock up on.

Dumas is running the new car. He ran the old front end on his rev 5 for 2 qualifiers in Cleveland. All drivers who Ive talked with like and prefer the new front end.
As for parts, I will have some of the high wear items in stock soon. I will post on here when they are back in stock at the Brood Shop...

This is a dead end street kind of operation. I am sick of playing games I am switching to a company who actually cares... and has some parts.
The rev 5 is a step back in time anyway.
