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
Polybush manufactures precision-engineered polyurethane suspension bushes for the Porsche 914, covering all mid-engined Targa models built between 1969 and 1976. Given the 914’s lightweight chassis and central engine placement, its agile handling depends entirely on the tight control of suspension movement. However, many of these classic Porsches still rely on original rubber bushes that are now several decades old, leading to perished components and significant “play” in the chassis.
Restoring Porsche 914 Steering and Chassis Response
Our polyurethane bushes are designed as direct replacements for the factory-standard items at key suspension mounting points. By removing the inconsistencies of aged rubber, Polybush components restore the sharp steering feedback and predictable handling these cars are known for. The material is far more durable than traditional rubber and better resists deformation under load, which significantly improves stability during high-speed cornering and heavy braking.
5 Technical Benefits of Polybush for Porsche 914 Models
Elimination of Suspension Play: Replaces soft, perished rubber to restore original factory geometry.
Maintenance-Free Dry Fit: These bushes require no grease, avoiding the dirt-attracting mess and potential squeaks of lubricated alternatives.
Enhanced Load Resistance: Polyurethane maintains its shape under hard cornering better than standard rubber.
Resilience to Environmental Damage: Our bushes are impervious to engine oil, fuel, and road grime, which often degrade rubber over time.
Versatile Performance: The upgrade is equally effective for preserved road cars and 914s used in classic motorsport or club events.
For any Porsche 914 restoration or maintenance, replacing the original bushes with Polybush is a fundamental step in returning the car to its intended level of precision and driver connection.
