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 Hilux Mk2, sold from 1972 to 1978 as the RN20, RN22, RN25 and RN27, kept the recipe that made Toyota’s first pickup work and simply made it a little larger and more comfortable. The suspension stayed honest: leaf springs at both ends, shackles to let them breathe, and nothing else to go wrong. Which is why, on a Mk2 Toyota Hilux that has covered real mileage, the bushes are the only thing left to renew.

The symptoms are easy to recognise. A truck whose spring eye bushes have gone will let the axle move under braking and acceleration, giving a distinct shunt through the seat and a steering wheel that needs constant small corrections. Worn shackle bushes add a clonk over potholes and let the rear track wander as the spring flattens.

The Polybush kit for a Toyota Hilux built 1974 to 1978 covers all the spring eye bushes and the rear shackle to body bush in one go, which is the sensible way to do it because they wear together. See the earlier Mk1 RN10, the Mk3 2WD that replaced it, or the complete Toyota range.
