Went for the superpro bushes in the end, front and rear for the front arms, despite what some people think...the car is now quieter, not harsh whatsoever and the way the car drives is tons better, definately a worth while mod. Rear beam next week

front arm bushes dead...so out...

and rear beam prep too.... lots of fire!

Can't go wrong with the superpros!!

Rear beam bushes are a piece of p!$$ to fit and tighten up the 'rear end' a treat! Almost sounds rude that!!!!!!

Steve;)

good to know, beams getting a lick of paint too so it's all bufty

Let us know how you get on with the superpros as I have powerflex ones but replaced the big round ones on the front arms as the angle of the arms kept popping the bush out so changed back to oem ones as there more flexible

I had the same problem. The SuperPro's are a different design and do not suffer the same problem as the Powerflex.

Had my old SuperPro's fitted for ages (just changed the whole setup to R32 arms and increased camber superpros etc.) and they never once 'popped out' - ooh er missus!!

HTH

Steve

did a good bit of reading and haven;'t seen the problems with super pros, have a friend who popped powerflex and reverted back to tt ones

Sounds good,I'll fit some of them next time I've got the car in bits,cheers for the info both of you

Is the rear prone to squeaking? Because I have a god awful squeak coming from my car. Dad reckons it is the rear but I reckon it is the front.

Super pro bushes that are rather cheap...

wonder what postage is on the above link, they are a cracking price!

my rear doesn't squeak, front used to knock under braking but if you'd seen the cracks in the bus you would have seen why!
