Hi Disco-Tastic,

Went through the same process and looked at the OEM Hydro units vs the Superpro....There has to be something wrong with the OEM if they wear out quickly and didn't want to have to do the same again! After procrastinating and putting up with the constant knock for months I decided on the Superpro bushes.

Do most maintenance items myself but suspension is to big a task and specialist gear...took it to Pedders and supplied the part. $500 to remove and fit the rear lower bush plus the $180ish for the bushes and all done in an afternoon.

All the other bushes were deemed OK.

Was the drive and feel different after? I'd say very minor to start but after a week they seemed to soften. Been in place for 6 months and I don't have any issues so far.

Hoping they last from 200Kms!

80,000km is hardly "quickly"...

If the bushes "softened" then they have torn or extruded in the housing...

What wears the bushes most (besides lots of offroad) is raising or lowering whilst stationary.

I am just about to replace my lower control arms for the second time at just over 110,000 km. They really are not amazingly long lasting are they.

Do you lower/raised when static?
