Avoid the powerflex bushes on the G40.

The inners are ok if you haven't got the rose joint, but the outters tear the ring of the end within a couple thousand miles if driving properly. Doesn't matter how much power you have, record stands at 1k miles on a 55hp coupe s.

I can do bushes that don't break cheaper than that too.

tbf i had them powerflex ones on my old G for 20k with a PPS subframe and they were fine. This time I got em from phil J as he does the inner and outer.

I fucked a few pairs in quick succession and after a massive whinge to Powerflex got another set free. And they've actually lasted, they got fitted just before the prototype subframe several years ago - so maybe loss of ARB made a difference.

They're sat on the shelf now as I've replaced them with our proto adjustable TCAs, so have rosejoint inner and a PPP-supplied outer nylon bush.
