Anyone know where I can buy a set of Polybush chassis bushes?  Paddys only sell complete sets, and the Paras came with them already fitted

I've heard from quite a few people that the polybushes wear very fast on a Series because of how the leaf springs work.  Once the bushes are worn through, you start wearing away at the chassis instead.  :shock:

Paddocks do them just for the chassis, i had mine from them, you just have to ring them for them but they will sell a part set.

i wouldnt bother with polybushes on a leafer.
they might be easier to fit, but your not going to be changing them anytime soon, and i've also heard that the polybushes wear out quicker.

in 10 years and 40000 miles i've changed 1, and thats cos the shackle bolt seized in it when i changed the springs
