Anyone done Powerflex ARB Bushes?

Seeing as though I'm doing the wishbone bushes I thought I might as well order a full set.

Anyone fitted the Powerflex anti-roll-bar bushes to an Ibiza mkiV?

I have Powerflex front bushes but Star Performance told me there was no need to get the ARB done as the OE one was sufficient for the job.

I rekon Cupra bushes are better than the powerflex ones..

I had powerflex's fitted about a year ago now, the wishbone rear bushes (the ones that will make the big difference) are just inserts... and have a tendancy to fall out if your bushes aint in mint condition.

Thanks Neo_VR, that's what I was worried about. The Powerflex stuff bushes turned up at the garage yesterday with my front-lower bush being knackered I'm afraid they won't do the job properly. I think I'll order some Cupra ones, anyone got a part number?

You were right Neo_VR,

I didn't even try to fit the udders and went with the Cupra ones.

Anyone want to buy some Udders?

Sorry for being daft, but on my car, the drivers side has a faulty part, that is currently bodged on until seat send me a replacement.

Its a bar, maybe about 10inches long (forgot now, been a while since i've seen it) with a ball joint on each end.

Basically one of the ball joints has a damaged thread and doesnt screw onto the shock absorber properly, and sometimes clangs when turning.

As I said, this is bodged - but are any of the things mentioned in this thread uprated versions of this that would be worth me buying and having fitted?

Cheers

that sounds like a droplink,

Not sure if there are uprated ones available?

Yeah, sounds about right. Sorry for going off topic :whistle:

About £13 for a new one from seat, so will have one fitted when I have my service.
