Owners will save thousands! When fitting 27AL (The main failure bush) or the full Kit 210.

Polybush Rear Hub Kit 210

If you own a Mk4 or indeed a Fiat / Abarth 124 Spider, you’ve probably heard of premature rear hub bush failure.
Developed in partnership with MX5 parts, our rear hub bush kit 210 offers a long-lasting, cost-effective fix – no need to replace the entire rear hub!

With many Mk4s now out of warranty, this kit saves owners from some seriously steep repair bills – Our customers are reporting to us that they’re literally saving £2000 by installing Kit 210! Which has been engineered with varying material hardnesses to allow precise movement while keeping NVH (Noise, Vibration & Harshness) in check – so your car stays tight, responsive, and still has that sporty zing you bought it for.

Why not OEM, Why Polybush?

Aside from the fact that these bushes are unavailable separately, Polybush material is not affected by oil, petrol or water and is extremely resistant to abrasion, our bushes retain their original state and do not suffer from compression set in the same way as rubber or cheaper injection moulded polyurethane bushes – meaning that in normal use they last up to 6 times longer and mild steel zinc plated inserts, as used on original equipment bushes, prevent galvanic corrosion and wear to mating parts.

Not suffering from compression set also means that if your MX5 isn’t your daily driver, then the bushing will not sag and deform as an OEM rubber bush would, keeping that factory fresh feel.

The ideal upgrade for the perfect ride and Handling!

Making every drive feel like the first out of the showroom, adding the front suspension and even diff bushes will tighten up handling even more so – reducing tyre costs, keeping alignments in check and really giving an impressive and confidence-inspiring drive.

Not a MK4 Owner?

Not to worry, we offer a wide range of suspension bushes for all MX5s

You can find them – HERE

The wait is finally over!

Polybush exhibited at the Classic Motor show at the NEC in Birmingham this year, read all about the event and the part Polybush played.

14th-16th of November NEC Classic Motor Show

Polybush exhibited at a stand in hall 9 surrounded by amazing classic cars from all over the world, several of which are already running using Polybushes.

We are helping customers with any and all enquires as well as just chatting about a mutual love of the classics, over looking a stand showcasing famous movie vehicles and wondering whether if we get that DeLorean up to 88mph we can go back and do this whole thing again (For the record we don’t do bushes for DeLoreans, sorry Doc).

GTI International 2012

Polybush sponsor the GTi International

For all of you lucky enough to be visiting GTI International at Bruntingthorpe this weekend come over and visit us on stand F4
We can tell you all about our new VAG products.

Thanks to Mark at Saxon Motorsport we will also have a Production GTI car on our stand.

Many of you may have seen Saxon Racing in the Production GTI Championship, a championship that Polybush is proud to sponsor.

Fitting Polybush Kit 144 to a MK4 Golf R32

When Chris at VOLKS WORKSHOP said he was keen to fit a set of Polybushes to his 2007 R32, we decided it would be a great opportunity to photograph and document the whole fitment.

Chris’s R32 was already a well-sorted car, having been remapped with a Milltek exhaust, BMC cold air induction kit etc though being on coilovers at a very low setting, the standard bushes were taking some punishment and starting to show signs of deterioration. It was the perfect candidate for fitting polybushes.

Polybush spent a day with the guys at Volks Workshop fitting a full polyurethane bush kit

See it here.

We started by fitting the bushes to the rear of the car, as that was where the majority of the work would be, all the standard bushes came out quite easily using a small press.

This could have also been done by drilling out the rubber section of the bush, sawing through the outer shell and drifting out the steel remains, as imagined the polybushes went in exceptionally easy just using some washing up liquid and a vice.

All the rear arms with newly fitted polybushes were then fitted back up onto the car and the front wishbones are taken off.

The perfect fit for the car

Polybush 44M

The front wishbone rear bush is utilising a new low friction blend of Polyurethane designed by Polybush.

This new material allows the Polyurethane in the bush to rotate without greasing or squeaking eliminating the need to routinely grease the bush, a truly fit and forget design!!

After all the bushes were fitted, Chris took the car for a long drive over the weekend (over 300 miles!!) reporting back saying that the car generally felt more responsive and agile. The most noticeable improvement was that the steering felt sharper and more precise. With the best thing being no increase in vibration or harshness of ride. An excellent improvement!!

After heavy demand Polybush have released bush’s for Ford Escort Mk1 & Mk2

As new the Ford Escort Mk1 & Mk2 were natural rally and race winners. Excellent performance cars with strength, agility and speed.
The Escort remains the same and with new technology, uprated components can now be fitted to upgrade the car’s performance. Polybush enhances the Escort’s performance giving an impressive and confident ride. A combination of design and high-quality hand-cast polyurethane ensure a perfect fit, absorbing shock superbly whilst maintaining complete mastery over suspension movement

Polybush introduced the Escort MK1 & MK2 kits following your requests, so it’s great to see the kits in stock and selling well. In fact, we are so pleased with the Escort MK1 & MK2 kits that we are looking to manufacture the later models.

If you have a later Escort and would like to get involved with trials give us a call on 01978 664316 or email us at sales@polybush.co.uk

TDI North put the latest edition of polyurethane suspension bushes from Polybush for the Honda Civic Type R through its paces at Cadwell Park last night.

TDI North has been working with Polybush over the past twelve months to develop a dedicated tuned polyurethane suspension kit for the Civic Type R (EP3 and FN2) and yesterday was the final culmination of this hard work. See it here.

Neil from TDI North will be taking part in this years’ Time Attack series using TDI North’s Director Paul West’s 260 BHP Honda Civic Type R FN2 which has been fitted with the latest Polybush polyurethane suspension bushes. With the first series of Time Attack being held at Cadwell Park on the 5th of May, Neil took the opportunity last night to familiarise himself with Cadwell’s twisty, undulating and winding circuit ahead of the first event.

The nature of the Cadwell Circuit fondly nicknamed the mini Nurburgring, gave Polybush valued feedback on how our bush kit performed on a circuit that asks a lot of suspension and its bushes.

Neil provided very positive feedback saying “the front end felt planted on fast and slow corners with the car staying very flat when going through the undulations of the circuit”. TDI’s car was driven to and from the circuit, some 377 plus miles, with nothing but praise for the road manners and ride quality.

Polybush & Glyndwr University race-prepared a Golf MK2, Live at the Autosport 2012.

On Wednesday evening we arrived at the NEC with a standard road car.

Thanks to our friends in the motorsport world we fitted the following:

A Roll Cage from Safety Devices
Seats from Corbeau
Harnesses from Luke
An Exhaust from Fast Road Conversions
Shocks absorbers from Spax
Front & Rear Strut braces from Saxon Motor sport
Braided brake lines from Hel
Plumbed fire extinguisher and kill switch from Demon Tweeks

As part of our ongoing commitment to bush design and excellence, Polybush works closely with Glyndwr University on a daily basis, so it seemed only right to work with them on our latest project for Autosport 2012.
Performance Car Technology students from Glyndwr University took a standard road car and over the 4 days of the show will prepare the car for the 2012 Production GTI Championship.

Polybush are delighted to be supporting the Production GTI Championship for a second series and were so happy with the way last years series went we decided to take it one step further!
The Golf MK2 prepared live at the show will go on to be raced by the Glyndwr Students in the 2012 Championship proving that motor racing is a sport for all levels of experience and budgets.
With a full range of VW Polybush ready and waiting to be fitted and a range of parts from kind sponsors Safety Devices, Fast Road Conversions, Corbeau, Luke, Saxon Motorsport, Hel, Spax & Demon Tweeks along with many others we are ready and waiting to go, so make sure to visit us on stand 7100 and watch the transformation live at the show.
