Dont know much about there stuff only that when I replaced my rear bushes in the leaf springs in the hilux was told not to use them as they are crap and will chop out in no time at all. so bought genuine toyota again the last lot lasted 250k so they must be good quality rubber, was told not to use the other type of bushes "had a mental block at the moment" they are in certain colours red etc, as they will chop out the spring hangers before the bushes them selves will wear out and also wont give that little bit of extra flex that we all look for. That info was from on here a while ago. Regards Steve M

the others would be urathane ;)

I presume that terain tamer use something like an APM spring, better to get a good quality spring made in aus IMO, shocks are probably something like a gibson in there own colours, they are not a bad budget shock
