Poly Bushes or Rose Joints?

Featured Replies

As the title says really? Do I replace my standard G40 lower arms with standard rose joint stuff @ £70 a side, or do I buy boggo lower arms and put poly bushes in place of the standard bushes? at £70 for the pair?

Is it likely to make any noticeable difference?

Really not sure what to do! I know that the old rose joints are knocking like bastards and could bo with being thrown in a skip!

HELP!!!!!

rubber inner and polybushed outers work pretty well with my subframe.

If you've got G-laderseite blocks pulling the anti-roll bar/TCA's forward,you're best with rose joints.

I've got billet ally versions that hold the bar as far forward as possible with the original mounts,and poly bushes in the TCA's - and the bushes struggle to deal with the angle the TCA sits,I've had one slip out so the TCA was fouling the chassis.

I'll go back to rubber if it happens again,as much because i want a soft link between wheel rim and chassis welds,if i ever clip a kerb or something

Yeah, I've got G-ladersite ARB blocks. I spose the rose joints move and give a little more than rubber/poly?

Yeah,rubber's more forgiving,it'll adjust/memorize a bit. The poly doesn't.

No such issue with a spherical rose joint,of course.
