Hi All
Anybody running the powerflex full kits on the front and rear, if so how do you find them over the std bushes.

Don't think you can get them for the rear - certainly couldn't when I bought mine for the front. I find them slightly firmer but to be honest the Steve Heath Drop Links and Gaz Shocks had more of an effect than the powerflex bushes

Hi,
Funny you should mention Steve Heath, he has them as a kit for the front / rear and a full kit not cheep.

I was going to wait for the powerflex rear end bushes but decided that given how thin the rubber is it could only make a tiny difference and be expensive.

I haven't seen the bushes that Steve supplies, but poly bushes come in a wide range of grades; the typical superflex/powerflex bushes are no harder than the standard rubber bushes (in fact I think they may be a little softer) but the main advantage is they last longer and maintain consistent behaviour for longer.
