Hi all,

What are the experiences here with the polyurethane bushings?
I'm looking into getting them, or actually are allready in the process of ordering them at IPD.

In the last few days I asked around in my country (netherlands) how people feel about them. I did not get a single positive response: all saying it will make too harsh a ride. I can see how the harder bushings will make a little harder ride, but I cannot imagine it will be catastrophic. People here also said it would be hard on the balljoints etc. I also do not see the link here.

I've got some lowered progressive springs for my car and though it would be good to use poly bushings with that. I will procede with it anyhow (stubborn as I am), but how do the you people who currently use the poly's think about them?

Cheers, Ben

(Also, I have contact with IPD, but they probably won't have all the bushings available in poly, is there a place where I could get the ones that IPD cannot provide?)
