IMO, just fit lemforder or Merle wishbones. Then fit poly if the front bush fails later.

I have yet to fit rear donuts to any gay pot. But there Is always a first time.

There's a few perfectly good rear donuts knocking about now some people have fitted poly donuts. So don't go buying any of those. :)


Are you doing shocks and springs?

There have been instances where front polys have shown up wheel balance issues that where not there on oe buggered bushes. Btw.

Dinged or bent wheels especially. Although IMO, poly give the rearward bush an easier time, as there is less yaw on the wishbone rear bush pivot under braking. Marginal, but it helps.

Both front shocks and rear are quite new, within last 20k or so Got Boge springs on rear, still good I think, not intending to replace unless one snaps. Avoiding KYB they appear to rust badly  :-\

So its just wishbones, think i'll just stick Lemforder in, Merle considerably more, although was impressed with their droplinks.

Might wait until my credit card resets for the month & order a pair week after next  :)
