    Poly is great for one thing; Sway Bar bushings. Everything else would be for a dedicated track/race vehicle with the mindset of replacing bushings with more frequency.

    Hey dude, great work, just wondering do you know the part number on the bushings that go on the sway bar? I have an Mk4 but there are somo 19mm, 21mm, 23mm and I have stock suspension

      On my car i got 20mm sway bar bushings 😂 but i know what your talking about its super confusing… i think its based on the year and model of our cars

      Yessir! The oem replacement i had installed failed within a year. The powerflex is a bit mote expensive BUT will last longer than the oem ! 🤘🏼plus you gain handling from it so its worth it

    I put lowering springs on my golf mk4 and the front stays a little raised, you can see the difference between the back and the front.
    What can I do in this case I don't want to cut a turn to the spring

    Hi.
    After these 2 years, is there still no gap?
    Or does it also have a bit of a gap?
    Regards.

    • @xNachoPandaXx

      No gap its a great option for oem if you plan on driving a bit more aggressively and are lowered

      I had “popping” noises and clunks and also typically the strut tower will be pushed outward if that makes sense

      @xNachoPandaXx  3 роки тому +1

      Just a bit of that clunk noise right as i would go over the bumps
      if its not your mounts it could also be the actual strut assembly (shock failing) / bad control arm bushings/ even cv axles when they fail they will transmit some feedback to the steering wheel
