    Question Powerflex Poly Bushes in wishbones - any thoughts/advice on fitting thankyouplease

    Hi Chaps,

    I've bugg3red my lower wishbone bushes AGAIN!!!!! My mechanic mate muttered something about a lead right foot and too much power but in truth, the roads around Pompey are shocking!! I've ordered the Powerflex PFF88-101 kit which I'm told (by Powerflex) will do both sides of my 855 T5. Anyone got these on their chariot? Anyone fitted them themselves?

    Any advice would - as always - be most gratefully appreciated.

    Cheers

    I fitted a set to Grahams car (same set as 850) easy job and well worth it.
    Fitting polys to a P2 is quite a bit harder.
