The Raven Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I used strong flex kit on mine. Made a huge difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishieftrottle Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I did not use full kit. Only a few bushings from strogflex and they are great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I bought the Whifbitz Super-Pro polybush kit a number of years ago when I stripped all my arms and refurbed them myself. https://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/super-pro-1100/ Doesn't include the Diff bushes, so I now have Strong-Flex bushes in my diff.

Thanks, I'm refurbing all my control arms and subframe bushes this winter and was worried poly bushes might be too stiff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 My arms were seized and a pain to get off. Removing the old bushes was easy in comparison. I fitted poly bushes, bc coilovers and upgraded anti roll bars, then had it all set up at Centre Gravity. Car drove lovely, no harshness or complaints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've done my fair share of removing old bushes for poly in the past so no drama getting it done. I'm not going to lie when I say it's a shit job, but it's gotta be done.

Herb Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I had my arms refurbed as well more than 10 years ago and used R2 bushings. Back then those were the ones to go according to the US boys. In addition to that, many of the other kits available these days weren‘t available back then. According to my personal opinion I find those bushings quite harsh to be honest. Do you guys reckon I could improve the ride quality in terms of comfort if I were to replace those R2 bushings with „softer“ ones? If softer ones are available… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
