Hi has anyone Poly Bushed there LR3? if so what color set did you go with, how much did it cost you or did you do it yourself.

 

Orange. Front arms only

LR025159POLYO $67.95 & RBX500311POLYO $54.95

Done myself.

 

Tempting to buy these for later...

 

Can you please provide some objective performance feedback? On-road, off-road...changes in dynamics, noise, anything. Have you noticed any more sensitivity in traction control or anything? All info helps. Thanks in advance.

 

maneuvering arms back into place is an experience, extremely tight fit... Check CV's before re notching both side axle nuts.

Best way I can describe the change in feel, it's as if your tires are over inflated going over small speed bumps (No change @ highway speeds). Less side to side motion, more planted feel.

Steering feels more firm/responsive with less roll.

Haven't experienced any low speed noise/squeaks pulling in n out of driveways.

 

I asked this last year in this thread. I ended up having the polys installed for around $1100, IIRC. Hard to compare them to the OEM rubbers as mine were shot when I purchased my LR3. Sure drives great now!

 

That's Not a bad Price was that for a full set front & back? i am thinking that when i have to do my control arms i will Poly Bush Orange the whole thing and upgrade the control arms too. Brit Part in the UK are doing Upgraded arms and i think it is Lucky8 that may have them as well.should never have to touch my control arms again after that.

 

No, that was just the front... Pretty happy with the way it drives now!

 

$1100 to install "just the front?" Holy crap. When you say "just the front" do you mean all pushes in the front end or just the hydro bush that is problematic on the back of each Lower Control Arm?

 

Price is a little nuts...


2 bushings per arm, large one (Hydro replacement) and the smaller one.
