We’ve selected the material that offers the best balance of performance and comfort for your vehicle’s needs.
Our Comfort grade bushes are designed to enhance ride quality and minimise road noise, making them ideal for everyday driving. They are softer, providing maximum suspension articulation and a cushioned feel that absorbs bumps and vibrations effectively. This softer composition ensures a smoother, quieter driving experience, especially in Classic cars or Land Rovers. Comfort bushes maintain a balance between originality and ease of driving, catering to those who value a relaxed Factory-Fresh drive.
The Dynamic grade bushes offer a middle ground between Comfort and Performance. They are slightly firmer than the Comfort bushes, which improves handling and cornering response without sacrificing too much ride comfort. These bushes are ideal for drivers who enjoy a more engaging driving experience while still needing a level of comfort for daily use, whilst also being suitable for spirited driving & light track use.
Performance grade bushes are the stiffest of the three, designed for enthusiasts who demand the utmost in handling and control. They offer minimal deflection, enhancing vehicle response and stability during aggressive driving. These bushes are perfect for high-performance or track vehicles where precision and handling are critical. While they might sacrifice some ride comfort, they deliver superior driving dynamics and control, ideal for those who push their vehicle to its limits – Including Towing!
These rods are produced in 90 Shore A which allows them to be machined on a lathe.

Specifications
The sixth generation Hilux arrived in 1997 with a softer, more car like character than anything before it, and this page covers the two wheel drive versions: the LN147, RZN147, RZN149 and RZN154. Toyota kept the leaf sprung rear axle, because nothing else carries a payload as cheaply or as reliably, and that is where a Hilux Mk6 shows its age.
By now these trucks have covered serious mileage, often with a bed that was rarely empty. The spring eye bushes take the axle’s fore and aft location and the shackle bush handles the rest, and both were rubber components with a service life measured in years rather than decades. When they give up, an RZN147 develops a knock on take up and a rear end that no longer follows the front cleanly through a bend.
Renewing all the spring eye bushes and the rear shackle to body bush in polyurethane restores the truck without changing its ride character. For four wheel drive versions see the Mk6 4WD page, compare the earlier Mk5 2WD, or browse the Toyota range.
