80 series suspension bushes, are the poly versions ok or not???? Or best standar

Hi David

I will try them, i didnt call them myself but a spoke to a mechanic who uses mainly their components and he told me they only did poly.
so i will call pedders myself.

Thanks

I just had a quick look on their website and can only see Urethane types listed for 80 series.

Do you know what pedders outlet might have rubber type?

I have urethane ones and they chewed out in no time. I saw a post on another forum a while back and phone a Pedders store in Adelaide and they confirmed they have either rubber or the urethane ones. That was late last year and I haven't got around to replacing mine yet.

for suspension components stick with rubber and toyotas ones if they are still available. a few others on another forum have just been through this exercise and wish they had not used eurethane bushings. they swapped them out again with OEM rubbers and were more than happy.

Pedders told me they don't do rubber ones about 3 months ago.

Thanks for info

I think might pay $ for Toyota = cheaper in the end i guess?

they also found that OEMs from Yota were comparable if not cheaper than aftermarket.

I know that Pedders make rubber castor bushes as I just bought some (cheaper from Suspension Stuff than from Pedders if anyone is looking). I know they also make poly castor bushes as the shop I'm getting my bushes replaced at uses Pedders poly ones and not the rubber ones. Seems funny to BYO of the same brand...

Not sure that they make other rubber bushes- I had some trailing arm bushes replaced there earlier this year to pass QLD roadworthy and they said it was poly or poly and if I wanted rubber ones to get from Mr Toyota. So, it might depend on which bushes you're actually looking at replacing!

Hi Graham + Lynne

Can you elaborate why the blue are ok and rest of poly type not?

Do you think that they are harsher and could lead to other issues as per some other posts?

Do you think I maybe should stick with original rubber type?
