Morning all...
Upcoming MOT and I think the 90 will be needing a few bushes, I was thinking of going down the route of polybush... but I have to admit I havent a clue on which one to get... Any advice much appreciated...
Now to the next part... I was having a silly thought and chucking some new springs/shocks under her I was thinking of going with Terrafirma, has anyone any experience of them, on the 110 I had procomp, they were alright but by heck the shocks were really bad for rust...

Hi
I put a set og orange polybushes on the readus arms of the 110 last August and they are still going strong.
I have a pair of blue ones ready to go on the panhard rod because the dreaded steering wobble has returned.
As for shocks I put on OME's a while ago, cant beat them.

Will probably just leave the shocks and springs at the moment... to many other things to sort first, I'd love to fit super pro, but cash wont go that far... but I'm staying clear of the britpart...

In my opinion.
Bushes by superpro, Standard rate springs OEM spec, Dampers by terrafirma. A nice combo that i find works well.

What sort of lifespan are you expecting from the superpro bushes?

Bushes, standard metalastic are great...how long have yours been on before needing replacing!?
Springs, again if it's just a daily driver then new std height std springs will bring vehicle back to std baseline to begin with...again very cheap! Nothing wrong with Terrafirma shocks either.
