    Got the prices back from manufacturer regarding the Poly Avant rear sub-frame bushes?
    £16-00ish each x8 thats £128 per set just for the Poly, then theres the machining time to add!

      .

      What hardness have you gone for?

      Machining...the bushes or the steel inserts?

      Just curious...PF car bushes are all in the Shore A range.

        That price is just for the poly blanks, then theres machining them and the steel inserts,
        you have to pay up front for a mould to be made £170-00.
        They have told me that it would be shore 90, they reckon i wont be able to machine shore 70?? to soft.
        Have read someware that you need to freeze s70 to make it harder for machining, no problem.
        There going to let me have sum samples for machining before i commit an order.
        I do now a company that sells it in rod form, but not that size 90dia.
        Going to suppliers tomorrow

        Will know more tomorrow, Carlos
