how much are oe?

[welshpug 1,646]

about £20

[Anthony 1,002]

And that's a kit for both wishbones, and as mentioned, comes with the bolts, washers and nuts too. No brainer IMO

That seems cheap if it has parts for both sides. Is it definitely not per side?

[welshpug 1,646]

used to be £18 not so long ago, definitely for the whoile lot.

[Baz 421]

Pretty sure that's per side rather than a full car (2 sets) kit.

[Anthony 1,002]

The "kit" is for four bushes and bolt/washer/nut sets - ie sufficient to do two wishbones.

[Tom Fenton 1,536]

3599.07 is 4 off bushes and 4 off bolts/nuts etc.

[Baz 421]

Blimey! That's a bit generous for Pug!

 

As it happens i do need a set, but was going to go for the red PolyRace ones at slightly more £, but they're for what is essentially a road car, although not that that makes a massive difference, should i stick to the plan or would the pug ones be up to it?

Even if you only need one bush per side it works out cheaper to get the full set, iirc last time I bought an individual bush it was £12+ & the kits were only £18 for all four (both wishbones) & new bolts back then.

 

I use standard oe pug bushes on my car which is basically a commute to track car & they are fine.

Slight hijack on a similar theme- is there any need to replace the wishbone bolts, or is it ok to keep reusing them? Im debating getting the old ones replated, or just buying new..

 

Thanks

Ive ordered a set, the lad who was on the phone this time wasnt a retard if they have any gaps in the bush itself (triable sections cut out like some do) i might fill it with a little strong silicone to stiffen them up a bit as i did with me corrado bushes and it worked well.

I had those poly race ones on the diesel, they didn't fit properly and didn't last more than a week! Strongly don't recommend them.

You bought them as PolyRace red bushes yourself & they came in PolyRace packaging etc?

 

As has been said before, plenty of others, myself included (and are at the moment) have used them without issue for thousands of miles.

[Paul_13 212 1 Cars]

Yep still poly race bushes in red in the packaging. Still got the bag label in shed some where.

The bushes are still kicking about on the floor

[Baz 421]

Bloody hell mate, that's shocking! And probably just made my mind up...

[smithy 1]

Pug do shock with the prices sometimes, £26 for bushes and bolts is a cracking price.

 

205_Sunderland just make sure you get arm in the normal position before tightening the bolts up or the bushes won't last that long.
