Suspension Bush & Bolt Kits

---

STANDARD BUSH KITS - Direct replacement of original bushes. Kits contain complete vehicle sets of standard suspension bushes, including: Front: radius arm-to-axle, radius arm-to-chassis, panhard rod. Rear: top link-to-chassis, bottom link-to-axle, bottom link-to-chassis. Also included: top and bottom shock absorber bushes, front and rear, plus anti-roll bar bushes where appropriate.

POLYBUSH KITS - original 'Polybush' suspension bushes are available in two types, Classic (red) and Comfort (blue), both equally suitable for Discovery. Classic are the original polyurethane bushes, giving a firmer ride and more positive handling; Comfort bushes are designed to combine the smoothness and comfort of the factory-fitted rubber bushes with the long life and easy-fit of the Polybush Classic.

POLYURETHANE BUSH KITS (ALTERNATIVE) - these high quality bushes are made from 80 shore hardness polyurethane (black) and offer a performance somewhere between the 'Polybush'; Classic (red) and Comfort (blue).

Both polyurethane kits are supplied as vehicle sets (excluding shock absorber, anti-roll bar & A-frame bushes - see 'Supplementary Polyurethane Bush Kits'), they are simple to fit replacements which will outperform and outlast the original rubber bushes many times over. Polyurethane bushes are also available singularly (black) - refer to individual listings on appropriate page(s).
Note: Although polyurethane suspension bushes can be DIY fitted by hand, requiring no special tools, a hydraulic press is needed to remove the old rubber bushes.

BOLT KITS contain all the nuts & bolts necessary when renewing the suspension bushes
