A quick question for you all.

I am re-bushing my whole suspension with genuine Mazda bushes - however you cannot buy droplink bushes. Just the whole droplink at £30 a pop.There are cheaper IL Motorsport ones, but I've heard their rubber components aren't brilliant.

The alternative is to polybush the droplinks. I can get Superpro for essentially the same price as Mazda replacements items, or slightly cheaper Polybush items.

What would you recommend, if any, from all these options!?

Cheers

Can I ask what they are rebushed with? Definitely interested though, thanks.
