Title: Interest in polyurethane suspension bushes?
Post by: dkp_cobra on May 02, 2007, 18:08:11: Hi,

   I contacted Powerflex (http://www.powerflex.co.uk/) to ask whether they have polyurethane suspension bushes for a AC MK IV. Unfortunately they haven't but they can produce them if the interest is big enough.

   So I have to questions:
   1) how would be interested in these kind of bushes
   2) do you have the same bushes for the front and rear axle? At my car they are identical but I have a quite early MK IV with a MK III style front axle , I guess.

   Regards, Peter

   Hi Peter

   We seem to have the same suspension. And I will buy a set of bushes If you have them remanufactured.
