So folks, what do we make of these kits?

Discovery Mk 1 FLOFLEX Polyeurethene Bush Kit

I've trawled enough to know the potential benefits and that fitting is likely to involve a lot of swearing and quite likely some bleeding but what do we think, worth it?

No they don't make any difference at all if ya bushes need replacement just refit OEM rubber bushes. After all most of em have probably been on since car left the factory.

I guess that's one less job then, guess we'll just replace as needed...just trying to freshen her up from a tired but healthy 15yr old to something closer to factory fresh so to speak.

They only prove usefull if ya lifting it as they don't deform as much as OEM when stretched. but for a fairly std landy I wouldn't bother. Other main advantage is they're easier to fit and don't need a press as some bushes do.

But apart from that I wouldn't bother.

So perhaps just replace them as they wear out with poly ones rather than grabbing a whole kit and trying to whack it out in a weekend? Easier to fit would definitely be a big bonus for me haha

Nah, I actually prefer the black originals, I'm not a fan of brightly coloured bits on a Disco...if I could do me a nice matte black '90 then we'd be talking
