Default PU or Rubber bushes

Hi, What PU-Bushes do you do nowadays for the volvo 240 series? Have you got an overview? Am I right to say that PU is not recommanded for all bushes of the suspension ie wouldn't it make the car a bit too stiff?? Hope to see an overview of available bushes.. Regards,

Right now the only ones of my own production are these and the arb bushes.

With 240's it is a good idea to replace all the bushes with PU so that everything responds the same. The great thing with PU is that it does absorb (like rubber) vibration and is not very harsh.

I do stock a full range of pu bushes for all 240's

Hi, do you stock all the front P,U bushes for the complete front of a '91 245?, As well as the rear! I have seen them on IPD's website.

Thanks, best regards

I do keep all the PU bushes for 240's. I don't like the IPD ones (or at least what they used to offer) because they are very roughly cast and generaly don't seem very well made.

If you want me to work out a price for a full kit let me know by PM and I'll do it for you.
