What Do The Different Grades Mean?

When There’s No Option Available:

We’ve selected the material that offers the best balance of performance and comfort for your vehicle’s needs.

Comfort (Blue 65A):

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.

Dynamic (Orange 75A):

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 (RED 85A):

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!

Machinable Material:

These rods are produced in 90 Shore A which allows them to be machined on a lathe.

Specifications

The Dolomite Sprint was a genuine performance saloon, a sixteen-valve twin-cam under the bonnet and a keen chassis to match, so worn suspension bushes rob it of exactly what makes it special. On these 1973 to 1980 cars the original rubber has hardened and cracked, and a Sprint that should feel sharp instead feels loose and imprecise.

Because the Sprint is worked harder than its siblings, the front upper wishbone and anti-roll bar bushes wear quickly, dulling turn-in and adding a knock over bumps. At the back, the live axle’s radius arm, trailing arm and upper link bushes, together with the tie bar doughnut at the axle, let the rear step out of line under power and braking. Steering rack and crossmember mounts add to the slack if left.

Our polyurethane suspension bushes give a Triumph Dolomite Sprint back its crisp, planted handling and stand up to hard use and the elements far better than rubber, an obvious upgrade if you actually drive the car. If you are gathering parts, the rest of the range runs from the Dolomite 1850 down to the Dolomite 1300, with everything in the full Triumph range.
