for starters the inserts are usually made by ES unless im mistaken..

as for the red vs black prothanes i do believe only the color is the difference.

check ebay.

If they are made by ES, I remember reading that the black is impregnated with graphite, but the red is not. That's supposed to be for lubrication. I read that on the site I looked up different ES bushings on.

The black is supposed to be a little more resistant to oil and grease that will "eat" polyurathane. But I dont know of anyone has ever really destroyed any prothane from regular use, or at all.

My exact though. Prothane is a company of its own.
ES makes fillers for the existing mounts, not full inserts.

But yes. Lets move on from that.

I'm sure the two question have already been answered, somewhat on the second one.
