Title: Polybushes advice
Post by: N44LED on August 16, 2016, 11:55:10 pm

Hi guys at the point where I need to change the wish bone bushes on the golf.

Just wanted to know how many bushes to start replacing as just need the rear fronts but didn't know weather to change for poly or just new oem ones.

Then it's on to the back end  how much do I change for full poly or is it best a half and half.

Also any recommendations on polybushes where to get from.

Thanks
Aled

just had my rear fronts replaced with a super-pro ALK. Happy with the results. Car turns in better and is less prone to wheel spin.

Sorry for the slight hi-jack but I'm looking for the following bushes for my GTI too.

Could anybody point me to the right ones from the Powerflex &/or Superpro range?

Lower Engine Mount Bush
Dogbone Bush
Front Lower Arm Rear Bushes - I think this is the Anti-Lift kit
Rear Arm Bushes

Thanks in advance

Thats what i used to do my front end. I choose the black edition chamber adjustable #1 and left the arb


Also i have a brand new PF85-504 (early up to 2009) for sale.

In box and unopened!!

When i did the bushes on my front i brought a new oem lower mount and forget about the upgrade when buying the insert.

Pm me if your interested, its sitting here doing nothing.
