[QUOTE="Jipster, post: 55660, member: 97"] Fellas....try Hokomoto in Batu Caves.....if i remeber correctly he has a bunch of those PU thingies in various sizes ....he may have the ones u looking for....they are Super Pro brand apparently made in Oz.... But as Redd mentioned....get a well known brand and chances are the bushings should be available either from the ARB manufacturer itself or some afetr market manufacturer e.g. powerflex, super pro etc. IMHO PU bushes should not deteriorate....thats the whole ratioanle for using them in the first place.....so the car maintains its set-up longer.....stock rubber bushes would breakdown in time and therefore will not be able to maintain a certain suspension setting/set-up foras long as PU .....a case of 'setting sudah lari lah beb' :) Justto be clear, changing to brand new rubber bushings should also bring near to mid term benefits before it starts to break down.....this is a cheaper alternative.....but if the ARB bushes are only a hundred or less bucks per front or rear I think u shud just go for PU :D BTW....PU bushes sometimes squeek.....make sure supplied lubricants are applied (sometimes white coloured cream thing).... Just some thots thats all.... [/QUOTE]
