Polybush kit now installed on V50 D5

[scoobysn7x]

I'd be interested in a price for a front only kit

I think the £210 is for single items and not 2 of or in some cases 4 of. I worked it out to be more around the £500+ mark.....

Edit 2:

For the front bushes, they supply two in each pack as the are (apparently) handed.

The total for front and rear wishbones and the AB roll bar mounts (which your not doing?) is ~£120 inc del. (http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?p=2413PFV50FK&a=i)
Rear Kit: £261.98 including the AB bushes. (http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?p=2413PFV50RK&a=i)

Total: £382 give or take.

Your prices (Powerflex) Difference.

Front wishbone, front bush: £32.98 x 2 = £65.96 (£35.80) +£30.16
Front wishbone, rear bush: £23.09 x 2 = £46.18 (£56.92) -£10.74
Rear toe arm, inner/outer bushes £23.20 x 4 = £92.80 (£75.84) +£16.96
Rear upper arm, inner/outer bushes £18.68 x 4 = £74.72 (£75.84) -£1.12
Rear track arm, outer bush £23.22 x 2 = £46.44 (£37.92) +£8.52
Rear track arm, inner bush £26.74 x 2 = £53.48 (£37.92) +£15.56

= £379.58 (£320.24) +£59.34

The difference to the powerflex bushes is made up to your total price by the four bushes for the front and rear ABs.

I'm still confused as to the difference...

Nice find, I like that they do it as a kit and not single items so that you cant get it wrong and know you are getting everything to do the whole job.

I think the front kit + rear kit format really works.

and obviously, individual ones for a higher price.

Hi, I had visited your website but unable to find the bushing set! do you still carry the products? also, if I am planning to upgrade the rear roll bar as well, how should I plan for the upgrade? do I have to buy special tools to tackle the jobs? I am in Hong Kong, I assume you do international shipping also..
Forgot to mention, mine is a 2008 V50 2.5 T5 RDESIGN, not a D5.

I've just had the front end completely polybushed as my OEM front bushes were an MOT fail. I decided that since they were having to be replaced I may as well opt for Powerflex.

The difference so far is quite stark. The steering feels sharper and feedback better and the handling seems more precise. I haven't noticed any real harshness having been introduced but I've only drive 15 miles on them so far.

I plan to get the rear done when my wallet has recovered from the 4 figure bill to get it past an MOT!

Not sure on the selling point of these over powerflex, both polyurethane - go with the cheapest?

@shark90- your site doesnt list them for a V50 ??
