Deflex Polybushes

(1/5) > >>

smo:
Has anyone fitted these? They appear to be cheaper than the "genuine" polybushes but i'm not sure if they will give any improvement in ride or handling, or which ones to go for, the Orange (road/offroad) or Yellow (Harder compound Extreme offroad)??

Bob696:
Mostly fitted here. Easier to fit than the rubber ones and a better ride (might be that my rubber ones were shot tho). Only problem I found was that I was trying to fit them to procomp shocks and their 'shanks' are shorter than the standard shocks. I was advised by deflec to take a couple of mm off with a grinder. Worked a treat.

Most have been on for nearly a year with no issues.

defenderdan:
Don't do it! For the extra few quid buy genuine polybush. It's a pants job changing bushes and you don't want to be doing it again in 12 months (which you will if you get deflex).

bullfrog:
Total pants ! :(
Why do you think they are cheaper.
I fitted a set to a 90 and they have split and have air pockets.
I got mine from Devon 4x4 at a very good price.
(bearmach blue ones):D
Check their shop for latest deals.

smo:
Oh, so not good then!

What is the general thought on genuine poly's, worthwhile?
