Poly bushed front control arms + radius rods?

[KMud]

Just wondering if anyone has done these - they don't seem to be part of the Pedders menu on MF, and not sure I've heard any opinions on whether it makes a noticeable difference (or just increases NVH). I'm talking about the inner bushing on the front control arms, and the bushing between the front control arm and radius rod.

How do you find it? Are you using the gforce ones?

i cant say because i had alot done at the same time, i bought them from the fish

Yeah, I just meant in general...if it were clearly very harsh then it's probably a step too far from the front end pack bits I've got.

Didn't realise MF did them...that they aren't on the performance upgrades list makes me wonder if they don't recommend them.

my suspension is stiff but not sure if thats the coilovers or the bushes

Mine's stiff too (low king springs), but I'm tempted...soon enough the OE rubber will fail and force the issue anyway

You have to remember also that Gurmeet hasn't driven his car for about 3 years, so he may not remember it too well

A quote from an email chat I had with roger about replacing the remaining bushes on my front end

" I'm not a fan of the inner arm bushes. In poly, these do add a bit of harshness to the ride."

Cheers, good info
