When it comes to maintaining and enhancing your classic car, the choice of suspension bushes can make a significant difference. If you’re considering an upgrade, Polybush’s 35A front bushes are an excellent option. Available in both Performance and Comfort variants, they allow you to tailor your vehicle’s setup to suit your driving style, whether you’re tearing up the track or enjoying a leisurely Sunday drive for an ice cream.
Rubber has been the go-to material for suspension bushes for decades, but it has its drawbacks, particularly for classic car enthusiasts. Here’s why rubber bushings might not be the best choice for your vehicle:
Wear and Tear: Rubber bushes deteriorate over time. Exposure to heat, oil, and various environmental factors causes them to crack, harden, or compression set (deformation under the weight of the car, like flat spotting tyres). This degradation can lead to a noticeable decline in handling and ride quality.
Flexibility: While some flexibility is necessary to absorb shocks and vibrations, rubber bushes can be too flexible. This can result in excessive movement of the suspension components, leading to imprecise handling and increased tyre wear.
Consistency: Rubber bushes can vary in consistency, even within the same batch. This inconsistency can affect the performance of your car’s suspension system, leading to unpredictable handling characteristics.
Polyurethane, on the other hand, offers several advantages that make it an ideal material for suspension bushes, especially in classic cars:
Durability: Polyurethane is highly resistant to wear and tear. It doesn’t degrade like rubber when exposed to heat, oil, or other environmental factors, ensuring a longer lifespan for your suspension components.
Precision: Polyurethane bushes provide a more consistent level of stiffness, ensuring predictable handling and improved vehicle stability. This precision allows for better control, whether you’re navigating a twisty road or pushing your car to its limits on the track.
Customization: With Polybush’s 35A, you have the option to choose between performance and comfort variants. The performance bushes are ideal for racing enthusiasts, offering a firmer ride and enhanced responsiveness. Meanwhile, the comfort bushes provide a more forgiving ride, perfect for everyday driving or those long Sunday cruises.
Vibration Dampening: Polyurethane bushes are excellent at dampening vibrations. (Even in Performance) This means you can enjoy a smoother ride without sacrificing the handling characteristics of your classic car.
Polybush’s 35A front wishbone bushes are specifically designed to offer the best of both worlds – Performance and Comfort. Here’s why they stand out:
Tailored Fit: The 35A bushes are engineered to fit your car perfectly, ensuring an easy installation and a snug fit. This precision fitment helps maintain the correct alignment of your suspension components.
Versatility: Whether you’re setting up your car for a track day or a leisurely drive through the countryside, the 35A bushes give you the flexibility to choose the right setup.
Swap between performance and comfort variants as needed to suit your driving style and preferences.
Quality Assurance: Polybush is renowned for its high-quality polyurethane products. The 35A bushes are no exception, offering superior durability and performance that you can rely on.
Enhanced Handling: With the 35A bushes installed, you’ll notice an immediate improvement in your car’s handling.
