beaver bushes

Post by paolo_mangusta »

Has anyone used this company? After some poly bushes for the Dart and I was wondering if any one had any experience of the company and the bushes. Left a message and I've yet to hear back :(

For that matter, would you recommend poly bushes generally? I've heard a few differing things about them but know they transformed the handling of me dad's range rover :?

Cheers for any help

There has been some very mixed reviews elsewhere. I've kept with rubber. I fitted poly bushes to my Capri and it was a swine of a job.

Pulled the rubber ones out of all my motors and replaced them with Polybushes....or rather someone else did and I paid them for it as it is a rotten job. ;)
The plus side is that it transforms the handling, even of old leaf sprung vehicles like Land Rovers. I intend to get Polyb's on the Charger this winter.....though I might do it myself...(don't trust garages with my baby!!)
I was going to go through beaver bushes, but have no experience with them...I'm interested to know what they are like...

cheers guys, that's encouraging, I'll give him another call and bung him an email.

Might have to get some poly ones for my non-Mope daily as well - bought a set of rubber ones from Eurocarparts and only discovered that they wouldn't fit after removing the old one - there was no way of telling before you had the old one off that it was wrong so now I've got no car and I can't find the original ones anywhere else :evil:

My Challenger has been fully poly bushed for years now. Including the lower control arm (which is the one that they say can cause problems) and the transmission mount.

All I can say is that I have had no problems at all. I can't say if they improved the ride or not as I uprated the springs and shocks at the same time.
