Preserving the Vintage Charm:

The MGB GT exudes a unique blend of nostalgia and driving pleasure that enthusiasts cherish.

Enhancing Performance with Polybush:

While retaining the vintage charm of your MGB GT is essential, improving its performance can take your driving experience to new levels. One upgrade that gives you the option between performance and comfort is Polybush suspension bushes. Our specially engineered polyurethane bushes offer several benefits for MGB GT owners.

Polybush bushes boast exceptional longevity, outlasting traditional rubber alterntives and providing reliable performance for years to come. With their superior durability and resistance to wear and tear, Polybush bushes are the ideal choice for classic enthusiasts seeking long-term reliability.

For MG owners who store their cars away for winter, having suspension bushes that resist compression set (Like Polybush) is particularly beneficial for maintaining the car’s performance and longevity. During the winter months, classic cars like the MG BGT are often subjected to cold temperatures, moisture, and prolonged periods of inactivity, which can exacerbate the effects of compression set in rubber components. Rubber suspension bushes, when exposed to these conditions, are more prone to permanent deformation and loss of resilience, leading to degraded handling and increased wear over time.
This can result in a bad alignment, with knocks and bangs when driving when the car is finally brought out of storage for the spring.

On the other hand, polyurethane suspension bushes, such as those offered by Polybush, are resistant to compression set and better equipped to withstand the rigors of winter storage. Their superior durability ensures that they maintain their shape and performance characteristics even after prolonged periods of inactivity and exposure to cold temperatures. By upgrading to polyurethane bushes, MG owners can rest assured that their car’s suspension system will remain reliable and responsive, whether it’s tucked away in the garage for the winter or out on the road enjoying the warmer months.

Moreover, Polybush bushes retain the comfort of the original suspension system while offering enhanced performance characteristics. By reducing unwanted flex and movemen and resisting deflection, your alignment is kept, meaning Polybushes provide a more precise and responsive driving feel, allowing you to enjoy spirited driving with confidence.

Whether you’re tackling winding country roads or cruising along the coast, Polybush bushes ensure that your MGB GT delivers optimal handling and stability without compromising on comfort. With Polybush, you can experience the best of both worlds: vintage charm and modern performance. As noted by our friends over at Wheeler Dealers
