When it comes to enhancing the performance and durability of your beloved Ford Fiesta Mk8, making informed upgrades can significantly impact your driving experience.
One of the crucial components that often goes unnoticed is the rear beam bushing. Replacing the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) rubber bushings with Polybush 40CN replacements can not only improve performance but also maintain the comfort you love about your car.

Understanding Polyurethane vs. Rubber Bushings

1. Durability and Longevity:
   • Rubber Bushings: OEM bushings in most vehicles are made of rubber. While rubber is initially pliable and absorbs vibrations well, it tends to deteriorate over time due to exposure to environmental factors like heat, moisture, light and road contaminants. This leads to sagging, cracking, and ultimately a loss of performance.
   • Polyurethane Bushings: Polyurethane, on the other hand, is highly resistant to wear and tear. It is less affected by environmental factors and offers superior longevity. Polybush’s 40CN bushings last significantly longer than their rubber counterparts, ensuring consistent performance throughout your car’s lifespan.
2. Performance Enhancement:
   • Rubber Bushings: Rubber bushings provide decent comfort but can allow for excessive movement during cornering, accelerating, and braking. This results in imprecise handling and reduced control.
   • Polyurethane Bushings: Polybush 40CN bushings are engineered to minimize unwanted flexing while still providing a comfortable drive.
     They offer improved stability, responsiveness, and overall better handling without sacrificing ride quality

     

How Polybush 40CN Benefits Your Ford Fiesta Mk8

1. Enhanced Handling:
   • Polybush 40CN bushings have voids removed compared to rubber, this reduces chassis flex and body roll. Resulting in more precise steering and better control during cornering.
   • Increased responsiveness means you’ll feel more connected to the road, which can greatly enhance your driving experience, especially in spirited driving situations.
2. Durability:
   • Polybush 40CN bushings are built to withstand harsh conditions, making them ideal for a variety of driving conditions, from daily commuting to track days. They won’t deteriorate like rubber bushings, ensuring consistent performance.
3. Reduced Maintenance:
   • Because of their longevity and durability, Polybush 40CN bushings significantly reduce maintenance costs associated with bushing replacements. You won’t have to worry about changing them as frequently as rubber bushings, Rubber bushings on this vehicle are now starting to be replaced yearly.
4. Factory Comfort Retained:
   • Polybush 40CN bushings are designed with the original durometer (hardness) rating to strike the perfect balance between performance and comfort. This means you can enjoy improved handling without sacrificing the ride quality you expect from your Ford Fiesta Mk8.
5. Ease Of Fitment:
   • Fitment of the 40CN can be done with the axle still on the car, simply hammer out the old plastic shelled bushes and install the replacements by hand, or as the video, with the help of simple hand tools.

Polybush bushings, made from high-quality polyurethane, outperform OEM rubber bushings in terms of longevity and performance. They are a must-have upgrade for any Mk8 Fiesta enthusiast looking to take their driving experience to the next level.

So, if you’re seeking a meaningful enhancement to your Ford Fiesta Mk8’s performance and longevity, consider replacing those tired OEM rubber bushings with Polybush 40CN. Your car will thank you with better handling and a comfortable ride that stands the test of time.

Rev Up Your Ride with Polybushes for Your Jaguar XK150
If you’re looking to take your driving experience to the next level, you’re in for a treat. We have a fantastic upgrade that will transform your beloved XK150.
KIT 153, a British-made polyurethane suspension bush kit designed to perfectly complement your British-made car, let’s explore why swapping out those old rubber bushings for polyurethane ones can make all the difference in your ride!

Rubber vs. Polyurethane: Unraveling the Mystery
Before we delve into the magic of Polybushes, let’s first understand the fundamental difference between Rubber and Polyurethane suspension bushings.
Rubber bushings have been a staple in automotive suspension systems for decades. They provide a certain level of comfort due to their ability to absorb vibrations and noise. However, they tend to wear out relatively quickly, especially under extreme conditions. As these Rubber bushings deteriorate, your car’s handling, steering, and overall ride quality can be compromised.

Enter Polyurethane – a high-performance material that’s becoming increasingly popular among car enthusiasts. Polyurethane bushings offer a unique combination of durability, strength, and flexibility. Unlike Rubber, they are resistant to wear, oil, chemicals, and temperature changes. This means they can retain their shape and properties for much longer, leading to improved performance and a more consistent driving experience.

Unleashing the Potential: Benefits of Kit 153 for Your XK150
Let’s focus on the show’s real star – Polybush KIT 153. Crafted with precision and care in Wrexham North Wales, this kit is tailor-made to enhance the suspension of your British classic. Here’s how it can make your XK150 shine:

1. Enhanced Handling: Polyurethane bushings provide a more direct and responsive connection between your car’s suspension components. This translates to sharper cornering, improved stability, and a more confident driving experience. Whether you’re cruising on a scenic route or tackling winding roads, you’ll notice the difference in how your XK150 hugs the curves.
2. Durability: Rubber bushings can deteriorate quickly, leading to sloppier handling and less predictable performance. Kit 153‘s polyurethane bushings are designed to withstand the test of time, ensuring consistent performance over the years. Say goodbye to the hassle of frequent bushing replacements and hello to worry-free driving.
3. Reduced Noise and Vibration: While some enthusiasts enjoy the rumble of their engine, nobody wants to be rattled by excessive noise and vibrations from their suspension. Polybush’ superior dampening properties help minimize unwanted noise and vibration, allowing you to enjoy a quieter and smoother drive.
4. Maintenance Made Easy: Polyurethane bushings require less maintenance compared to their rubber counterparts. You won’t have to worry about greasing with us, or checking for wear as frequently, giving you more time to appreciate the open road.

Installation: Easy and Worthwhile
Installing Polybush Kit 153 is a straightforward process that can be done by enthusiasts of various skill levels. Whether you’re a seasoned DIYer or just getting started with car modifications, this kit has all the parts to provide enhanced performance and driving pleasure.
