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
Ford Focus Mk1 suspension kits exist because of one design decision. When the Focus arrived in 1998 Ford gave it the Control Blade independent rear end, a genuine multi link layout in an ordinary family hatchback, and it is the reason these cars still feel alive on a back road. It is also why there is so much rubber back there to perish.
Work through the rear in order: the track arm inner and outer bushes, the upper arm inner and outer bushes in the cast arm, the toe arm inner and outer bushes, and the trailing arm bush. Between them they hold rear toe, and as they age the car develops that familiar vagueness where the back follows a moment after the front. At the front, note that this non ST and non RS page takes the 12mm bolt wishbone front bush. The hotter cars use a 14mm bolt, so measure before ordering.
The rear engine mount bushes, large and small, are worth doing at the same time. See the Mk1 ST and RS, the Focus Mk2, or the Ford range.
