What Poly Bush?
Posted: Sun Nov 19, 2017 7:49 pm
Hi,
I was just trying to price up some decent poly bushes today and found a scary price difference between suppliers. Also there are many different brands. I know to steer clear of cheap Ebay ones and especially the make your own route
My question is this; which brands good and which should I steer clear of? I saw a youtube vid today showing the failures in design of the Powerflex bushes on an MX5 and how these SuperPro ones are better because they are machined afterwards and have a textured internal section to hold grease better to allow the free movement from the crush tube. Also they have less material at the sides due to a 45 degree bevel. This did make the Powerflex ones look poor but then lots of reputable companies sell them. I can get a full car set of SuperPro bushes from an Ebay shop for £328.89. Is that good? Super-flex ones seem to be about £40 for rear leaf bushes so I think a full set would be around that price. I like the engineering quality of the SuperPro ones so will be going for it probably unless someone can tell me they are actually
Thanks
