Whatever you decide to do, i would strongly advise against poly bushes..... i used them on procomps and the top 'ring' split in no time flat..... the bushes are too firm for the strength of the ring....

I was thinking of getting polybushes but didn't want to spend the money, Maybe I should just keep using landrover ones and changing them on a regular basis, cheers.  Ben

I put polybushes on with the Britpart shockers and the ride was rough as a rough thing, it also accelerated some body corrosion because the ride was so harsh.  I nbinned them afetr 6 months and things are better.
