I am renewing my full suspension set up shortly and and buying new everything and I'm looking at p bushes. I can go standard, upgrade to berlingo ones, go powerflex, go vibra-technics or rich w? Well money is an object so rich w is out the question but I've seen the vibra-technics ones for a snip over a ton and was wondering if anyone had had any experience with them? Good bad or ugly? Just let me know cheers guys

I think their massively over priced for a small bit of ally with a thin rubber bush in.... I've seen them snap off as well....

I'm about to put roller bearings on but I was tempted to try the powerflex black ones. But for the minimal cost I'd be going berlingo P bushes any day with powerflex front bushes and lemforder ball joints.

Cheers for your thoughts mate, I have powerless. Purple bushes currently so may just make sure they aren't worn when i take them off and reuse them. However I am aiming to have every aspect of the suspension renewed as it is 15 years old now so would be nice to have them replaced with new items

I'm doing the same with mine at the minute. Got some nearly new roller wishbones fairly cheap an some AP coilovers but decided I may as well renew the entire front suspension setup at the same time so have got SKF top mounts, Lemforder TRE's drop links and Ball joints to go on as well. None of mine is massively old but want it all spanking new before I go for more power lol.

Of you've already got the purple front bushes it will be a 2 min job to renew those with new ones then. I was tempted to try the powerflex black series P bushes from eBay as thy add some caster to the setup as well but they've gone up to almost £90 now. Might be worth a punt tho.

But yeh personally I wouldn't waste money on the vibra P bushes their a lot of money.
