how do you find the car handles with the uprated bushes Dave ?
heard from a few peeps that it makes it all to stiff and not so nice to drive on track ?
Ive got polysport bushes i bought many moons ago and never fitted still lying in the garage somewhere ,but i was just going to go with std and see what its like first , when you buy the wishbones from renault do they come with the bushes and ball joint or is that all seperate ?
Im sure i seen them for sale somewhere and they came with bushes ,new bolts and ball joints just cant mind where :confused:

i stuck them on my old 5 and it was sharper over the old bushes, but thats what they were, old and tired.. i have another 5 which is where these are going, and im sure im making the right choice fitting them.. i worked at a tyre garage when i fitted them last and play was reduced, followed them up with coilovers, that made things harsh..
if you were to buy new wishbone i'd feel a propper n0b taking the standards out for polys, im sure theres little in it from new.. like you say, i think they come fitted, i've only ever one had to press bushes in new wishbones once and when they were in they were loose.. sent back for a ready fitted set up:)
rally design for the bushes,£20-£30 :)
