If you’re looking to upgrade the suspension on we are here to provide high-quality polyurethane bushes that can drastically improve handling, reduce wear, and increase the longevity of your vehicle’s suspension components.
Why should you even consider upgrading to polyurethane bushes for your Audi A4, A6, VW Passat, SEAT Exeo, or Skoda Superb?
Unlike traditional rubber bushes that can deteriorate quickly and affect the handling of your vehicle, polyurethane bushes are designed to last significantly longer and provide more consistent performance.
Our bushes are engineered to reduce unwanted movement in your suspension components, ensuring better control, sharper steering, and a more responsive drive. Polyurethane is also more resistant to wear from chemicals, oils, and the general rigours of daily driving, making it perfect for performance vehicles as well as everyday cars.
We offer a comprehensive range of suspension bushes designed to fit popular models like the Audi A4 (B5, B6, B7), Audi A6 (C5), VW Passat (B5, B5.5), SEAT Exeo, and Skoda Superb (Mk1). Here’s a closer look at the key suspension components we manufacture for these vehicles:
This bush is located at the front of the lower control arm, playing a critical role in maintaining proper alignment and reducing excessive movement in the suspension. Replacing the OEM rubber bush with our polyurethane version will give you sharper steering response and more consistent handling, especially in hard cornering.
Like its inner counterpart, the outer control arm bush is essential for keeping the wheel alignment true and preventing premature tyre wear. Our polyurethane outer bushes are engineered to handle the stresses of daily driving while providing increased durability and performance. Paired with the inner bush, this combo can transform the way your vehicle handles on the road.
Often overlooked, this bush plays a significant role in stabilising the rear section of the lower control arm. Worn or damaged rear control arm bushes can lead to a sloppy or vague steering feel. By upgrading to a Polybush polyurethane rear bush, you can tighten up the entire front-end suspension and enjoy a more responsive drive.
The upper control arm bush is key to maintaining proper camber and caster angles, ensuring that your tyres maintain optimal contact with the road surface. Our polyurethane upper control arm bushes offer a significant improvement over stock rubber, reducing body roll and improving cornering stability.
The anti-roll bar, also known as a sway bar, is critical for reducing body roll during cornering. Our 29mm front anti-roll bar bushes are designed to provide a firmer connection, giving your vehicle better stability when taking tight turns. Unlike rubber bushes, our polyurethane versions won’t degrade as quickly and will maintain their performance for years to come.
The drop link connects the anti-roll bar to the suspension, and its bush plays a vital role in transferring the forces from the anti-roll bar to the rest of the suspension. Upgrading to a polyurethane drop link bush ensures that your anti-roll bar is performing at its best, helping to reduce body roll and improve overall handling.

Whether you’re after the front lower control arm bushes (44FH & 44FJ), anti-roll bar bushes (44FM) or any of our other high-quality products, Polybush has you covered.
