Polybushes

Post by d_harris »

I seem to remember some muttering a while back regarding low grade poly bushes? Is this still a problem? Any supppliers you know sell good 'uns? (notice the positive slant, to comply with T&cs :wink: )

I've noticed that the brushes w/the finer foam (smaller bubbles) are superior to the ones w/coarser foam.

I see that I goofed, let's call it a "senior's moment". I read it as brushes instead of bushes. Sorry about that.

Still don't understand where there are foam brushes in the suspension! There are plenty of poly BUSH suppliers on ebay....... some less expensive than others.

I fitted Superflex polyurethane bushes everywhere possible during the restoration ending in 1998. Since then they have done almost 40,000 miles and show no sign of needing any replacements. Can't ask for anything more really.
