 FWIW, I installed poly bushing from TSI over 25 years ago and they are sti=
ll in good shape.=C2=A0 It makes for a harsher ride over the rubber but the=
 suspension geometry is more accurate and reliable.

Hi Everyone,
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Thanks so much to everyone for your great advice as to t=
he replacement bushings for my TR6.=C2=A0=20
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 The company that provided my last set of bushings is Pol=
ybush in the UK. I re-bushed the whole car with their product and 100% of t=
hose bushings have failed including the rear swing arm bushings and the ste=
ering rack bushings in about 25,000 miles. I replaced the swing arm bushing=
s last winter and I=E2=80=99m going to have to replace, at minimum, the ste=
ering rack bushings before this driving season.=C2=A0 I=E2=80=99m going to =
try to put off the rest of the front end bushings until this driving season=
 is over.=C2=A0 I=E2=80=99ve ordered a set new polyurethane bushes from Bri=
tish Parts Northwest and expect to have them in a couple of days.=20
