Pittuf 0 Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 When I fit the new suspension kits we are gonna be getting, what bushes/stops ( ?! ) would it be beneficial for me to change/uprate at the same time to save on time and expense later.Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 bumpstops definatly..you'll probably find yours are in a bad way. i'd just get standard ones.also theres the rubber bit in the top mount, thats worth chaging, again stick with o.e. vw ones.if you want to go further you could change your wishbone and rear beam bushes...but theres a lot more work to do and its not really anything to do with the front strut, and won't cost any different if you get it done now, or get it done later.[ Edited Fri May 21 2004, 10:00PM ] Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted May 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Cheers m8, guessed you would say the bumpstops.You don't recommend the powerflex stuff or other polyuerethane bushes and stops then? Link to post Share on other sites
