Yup that's what I've dicided. Does anyone know if paddock is a good company I have emailed about a poly bushing set that would cover my front radius arms, rear trailing arms, panhard rod, rear a frame which I already replaced but it's just in the kit, shock bushings, anti roll bar links and bushings. Anyone got anything else I could have a go at if I'm gonna order it from them I would rather do it in one shipment as it's gonna cost me in shipping.
I've heard rubber is better than the poly bushes, personally I'd go for oem-its lasted 20 odd years then replace with the same.
Alright will all that listed cover any sway caused by bushings
Your number 1 priority is sorting the vcu. The bushes plus a nackered vcu is gonna make tour long wheel base a dog to drive. What's it like on corners? Everything your describing so far is straight line torque related.
these kits have every bush the vehicle needs
That confirms for me even more that's the exact kit I emailed about shipping. Should I go ahead and replace the top mount bushing for the rear trailing arm link:
Is that kit for one side or both
you get both in the kit along with every other bush, i used a lot of those kits on customers trucks
Alright so I will need to order one of those kits. Anything else I should order while I'm at it
2 or 4 of these ny120046
Well paddock wants 60 dollars to ship so I'm gonna try to find a kit from a us seller I checked Atlantic British but it's alittle pricey
Thats as maybe, depends on usage though. But in any case if done with polys and new fixings now then the whole lot could quite possibly be changed in a single day when needed, rather than putting off what can be a time consuming job.

Yes they do last longer, quite often because people don't like changing them
They might well be better as well but proper polys are not bad in comparison.

In my case as I don't have access to the sort of tooling to press out/in metalastics it makes sense to me to use the polys.
Ok use what is easiest for you. But proper metalastic bushes are several times better than poly bushes. That is why manufactures fit them instead of the much cheaper and less durable poly ones.
