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 first Skoda Octavia (1U) was the car that changed how buyers saw the brand, a spacious, well-built family car sharing its platform with the Mk4 Golf and Audi A3. On front-wheel-drive cars from 1996 to 2004 the rubber suspension bushes have now perished, so an early Octavia tends to clonk over bumps and feel vague and tired through corners.
The front lower control arms carry a front and a rear bush, and these wear first, dulling the steering and letting the nose knock. The front anti-roll bar bushes soften alongside, bringing extra body roll. At the rear, the two-wheel-drive Octavia uses a torsion beam axle whose mounting bushes perish and let the back of the car track loosely. Because the platform is shared so widely, these are very familiar wear points.
Our polyurethane suspension bushes for the Skoda Octavia Mk1 restore its tight, planted feel and resist the salt and grime that rot rubber. The four-wheel-drive version uses an independent rear, so see the Octavia Mk1 4×4 range, step up to the Octavia Mk2, or browse the full Skoda range.
