Poly Rear Subframe Bushes Yes Or No?

[nwsavvy]

Hi,as the title really. Can anyone who has these fitted give advice please?

I think my nearside bushes are on the way out. A bit of knocking over rough roads.I have changed the drop links and this has helped.

The car is 2006 2.0 TDCi with 225/40 x 18 tyres and I know these will make the ride harsher and wonder if I put polly bushes in will it make the ride so much harder? I really am not too worried about slightly harder ride but think they may stop the knocking as in loose subframe.

The real reason for thinking polly is that I can do these myself.

Thoughts please.

Well, when I looked for them for a Mk IV, I couldn't find anyone who sells them. Who have you found them from?

Hi. Mine is a mk3 facelift so not sure about mk4 bushes. I found some on the bay of e for the mk3 very good price ( if I get them) so I can try them for a small cost and replace if they only last 12 months.

Cheers.
