LCA Bushes (PowerFlex)

[Henry330i]

Hey all forgive me if this has been covered already:fencelook:

Have any one fitted Powerflex bushes to their car.

I need to replace the ones on my Subaru Legacy they are oil filled and dealers want R985 a piece. However I can get powerflex ones at half the price.

Any feedback

Well from what I have heard and read they give a very still and responsive feel to the front end of the car due to their hardness, because they are so hard they also tend to last longer, but they tend to wear out other parts of the suspension quicker.

i fitted powerflex subframe bushes and im very impressed with the product... they also designed in a way that makes them very easy to fit its almost worth buying them just for that :rollsmile:

The should not be half the price. They should be about 20% of the new price. BMW ones are. But yes, nothing wrong with them.

have them on my car, makes for a nice and solid front end, but definitely transmits more vibration to the cabin.

they are the best made of the poly bush offerings out there imho..

its been a while, dont quite recall.. think it was around R800-00 ..
have to mention that this spesific set has been on 3 of my E46's already, if i sell the car i just swop them out.. they are virtually indestructable..
