Which Polybush?
Moderator: Micka
Which Polybush?
Now i have brought a pair of Caster corrected arms, I thought i might as well put new Polybushes in while fitting them.
Now i have no experience with Polybushes so i am not sure which one to get? I will be using the Rangie off road but i want it to be comfortable on the road without handling like a super tanker (this is probably not possible all in one package).
Anyway all you people with Polybushes fitted which type should i go for?

Another vote for rubber - the rubber bushes are part of that famous rangie floating ride, poly bushes give a somewhat rougher ride on bitumen, and tend to transmit bumps more, and rubber bushes are far superior off road for suspension flex.
Unfortunately mine has had poly bushes fitted in the front, which I intend to replace as they chop out.

None - except for panhard rod bushes.
Why is poly good as a panhard rod bush?

ive had 2 sets of poly that fell out after two trips, which resulted the whole front end shook like a wheel falling off. had strd non castor corrected bushes in ever since. poly on the panard rod. because the bush doesnt flex side ways or twist like the castors from the natral track of an axle traveling up or down, the panard just goes vertically on the pins each end, as long as you put them in with plenty of grease

Also more resistant to oil leaks and gives a more positive steering feel.
and poly can be destoyed in a days outing.
Yes if your car is tarmac toy then by all means use polly.
if you go off road use rubber.

Yeah, put them in my rangie not longer after i first got it 11 years ago but soon realised that they flog out quicker than rubber, i still fit them to the panhard as they locate the front axle better aiding steering response - anywhere else they are cr@p. The ones i fitted to the front radius arms had to be cut out with the bolt !
