    Don't compare Superpro bushes to "poly bushes". Yes they may be made of similar stuff but Superpro has actually redesigned their bush to flex extremely well when required.

    There seems to be many happy Superpro users who don't rate generic poly bushes at all and this is backed by experience.

    As stated above - SuperPro bushes cannot be compared to any other poly bushes on the market.

    There is no other poly bush I would contemplate fitting to a coiler.

    and they use an appropriate durometer of material for each location, sometimes even softer than stock, not rock hard, rock hard and rock hard.

    Camel landy

    I would also like to point out that poly bush as in the brand does have different stiffness within their range a lot of people fitted red to make them last longer the ride was harsher and it was known to crack chassis if flexing a lot

    And I would just like to point out to others that we have poly bushes on the 90 have had them on there for the last mmmmm about 6/7 years and they have been superb they are however the softer of their range, the red ones are the stiffest

    That said the performance of the super pro, I would only put these on now just because I think they are market leaders

    There is no correlation between colour and stiffness (Durometer) in polyurethane. You can make poly in any different combination of colour or durometer. SuperPro are the same colour, but use are a wide durometer range of polyurathane.

    I think Lou is talking about that one particular UK brand (Polybush ?)

    yes that is correct Rick, like I said in my post polybush as in the brand..the red are the stiff ones the blue the medium, when people polybush in the UK they are usually talking about the brand.

    although things have probably changed over the years and the case may no longer be that the colours represent the different types with in the poly range I'am talking 8/9 years ago.

    I can only find a super pro kit for defender 93 -02

    does anyone on here have a TD5 with full superpro bushes on old than an 02 model did you use the same part numbers as the older models?

    I'm sure not a lot has changed although justin did say something about the panhard bushes changed.
