Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has experience with the Britpart poly bush kit for the p38 (DC7107)?

I know many people say to never put poly bushes on a rangie as it will give a harsh ride and they don't allow enough roll. I disagree strongly with the poly bush hate. Harshness depends on the Shore rating of the compound and a properly developed poly bush can be as forgiving as the standard rubber ones. But given the price of the Britpart kit it is exactly this 'properly developed' bit which I have doubts about.

So hence, anyone fitted those and found no increase in harshness of the ride?
 
People seem to get varied results. Preference may be a part of it but some people report improvement, some none, few have even gone full polybush only to revert to OEM because it ruined it? When replacing old worn OEM with brand new polys it’s never gonna be a fair test.
Would be interesting to see a poll get the numbers in

Cheap/britpart poly is always going to be better than worn out/broken rubber
But how long will they last?
