I am about to order some power flex bushes for my Z4M
I am changing the rear lower control arm bushes not because they where worn out but because I am changing the rod bearings and the lower control arms needed changing due to me splitting the ball joint rubbers so emerging work/cost
The question is do I go for road or track bushes.
Looking at the front end set up most joints are fairly solid from the factory the control arms are connected to the car via 2 ball joint bearings and one rubber joint, the one I am going to replace with a powerflex one, so I am thinking of going for the track one as there appears to be little in the was of damping from the standard bush, it looks more like it has the moment of a bearing, if you can see what I mean.
The rest of the front suspension and steering assembly I have had off the car is pretty much solid mounted ie the steering rack is solidly bolted into the cross member so this makes for a more positive steering than say if it was rubber mounted as some cars are.
So back to the question has anyone got any feed back on the powerflex bushes
Also I have been told there should be some black Friday discount on power flex bushes tomorrow.
Thanks
