Anybody polybushed the front wishbone bush (rear bush)

shane@mbtech · 12-04-2010, 09:40 PM

Wondering if people have polybushed this,

Looking at how it moves under braking and accelerating it looks like it might be worthwhile?

Any drawbacks, I can see possibly making the front end quite skittish

feedback appreciated

What brand did you fit.

Ive used powerflex in the past and they were great.

I got the race only ground control rose jointed ones, they do a street version which are more compliant and I assume a stiffer than standard bush.

I've just fitted powerflex bushes front and rear, but No track time on them yet. On the road I noticed a sharper ride in term of direction changes. there is a little more frequency noises from the rear though.

wouldn't fit them with a limiter kit on the rears, it sound like a hamster squeal under the seat. lol
