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

Citroen C3 Picasso SH suspension bushes wear faster than the hatchback’s for a reason worth understanding. Built from 2009 to 2017, the C3 Picasso sits noticeably taller than the car it is based on and is almost always carrying people and luggage rather than one driver, so the front wishbone inner bushes are asked to work through a wider arc under more weight.

Taller body, more roll, more twist in the bush. The inner bushes hold the wishbone to the subframe and have to deflect every time the suspension cycles, and on a family MPV that does the school run fully laden they are cycling under load almost constantly. The first sign is usually the steering going slightly imprecise on a motorway, needing small corrections to hold a lane, followed by uneven wear across the front tyres. Because nothing has actually broken, it is often blamed on the car simply being soft.

Polyurethane restores the geometry without transmitting the road noise a family car should keep out. See the C3 II SC hatchback underneath it, the larger C4 Grand Picasso, or browse the Citroen range.
