I have to replace the rear subframe bushes and have a set of Mini Sport black poly type that the previous owner must have bought but never fitted. Should I just use these, or buy a rubber set? |

These days I would use poly. As the quality of 99% of rubber is rubbish and cracks up prematurely. Ditto front lower arm rubber bushes. |

Thanks Dr. That saves me a few $ too. I see you’ve got a Peak ignition fitted too. I couldn’t believe the difference it made to my setup. Can’t rate them highly enough, but I believe they’ve gone out of them now? |
