FAQs
What is the main benefit of using Powerflex bushes?
The primary benefit is the significant improvement in handling precision, steering response, and overall stability by replacing soft, worn rubber with a stiffer, more durable polyurethane.
Will these bushes make my ride uncomfortable?
They can make the ride feel slightly firmer due to the increased stiffness compared to OEM rubber. However, this is often a worthwhile trade-off for the improved control and reduced unwanted suspension movement.
How long do Powerflex bushes typically last?
Powerflex bushes are known for their longevity and are designed to outlast standard rubber components significantly, often lasting the lifetime of the vehicle when installed correctly.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
Generally, standard automotive tools are sufficient. However, a dedicated bush removal and installation tool can make the process easier and prevent damage to surrounding components.
What is the Shore A hardness of this bush?
This specific bush, PFF85-1303-25, has a Shore A hardness of 80, indicated by its purple color.
Are these bushes suitable for track day use?
Yes, their performance-enhancing characteristics make them suitable for performance driving and track day applications, offering improved stability and feedback.
Troubleshooting
Uneven tyre wear persists after installation
While this bush improves handling, uneven tyre wear can also be caused by wheel alignment issues. Ensure your vehicle's wheel alignment is checked and set correctly.
Increased road noise or vibration
This is sometimes noticeable with stiffer suspension components. Ensure the bush was installed correctly and not overtightened, which can transfer more vibration. In some cases, a period of 'bedding in' may reduce NVH.
Difficulty removing old bushes
Old rubber bushes can become seized. Use penetrating oil and appropriate tools for removal. If the bush is severely bonded, professional assistance might be necessary.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly improves vehicle handling and steering precision.
- Contributes to longer and more even tyre wear.
- Enhances braking stability and driver confidence.
- Offers a more cost-effective solution than frequent replacement of standard rubber parts.
- Durable material provides a longer service life compared to OEM rubber bushes.
Cons
- May introduce a slightly firmer ride feel due to increased stiffness.
- Requires removal of the original bush, which can be time-consuming.
- Potential for increased noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) transmission, though often minimal.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This bush is designed as a direct replacement for the original rubber anti-roll bar mounting bushes. Installation typically involves lifting the vehicle, safely supporting it, and accessing the anti-roll bar mounting points. The old bushes need to be removed, and the new Powerflex bushes pressed or fitted into place. No special tools are typically required beyond standard automotive hand tools, though a bush removal/installation tool may aid the process.
Compatibility:
Refer to the Powerflex application list for your specific vehicle model and year to confirm that the PFF85-1303-25 part number is the correct fitment for your front anti-roll bar. These bushes are designed for popular vehicle models, both new and older.
Care:
Polyurethane is a robust material requiring minimal maintenance. Clean the bushes periodically with a soft cloth and mild soap if accessible. Avoid the use of harsh solvents or petroleum-based products, which could degrade the material over time. Regular inspection for any signs of damage or excessive wear is recommended.
