    What is the characteristics of black raptor? Smoother behavior than original? Less movement of the cabin?

    • @Zaff_TT

      Polyurethane bushings are more durable than rubber and can handle higher loads. Their stiffer and stronger material provides better alignment and steering control. However, rubber bushings excel at absorbing vibrations and reducing road noise, resulting in a smoother, quieter ride. They are also more affordable. The difference in feel between brands of polyurethane bushings is almost negligible, in my opinion. I hope this helps.

    Great video, I rewatch your stuff all the time whenever I need to do a job lol. Any reason to do super pro at the front and black raptor on the back? I imagine just to keep the budget down which is exactly why I am considering doing the same..!

      No specific reason. When I did the front, the black raptor brand weren’t available at the time

    Do you need a press, or could you just hammer it?

    • @Zaff_TT
      @Zaff_TT  9 місяців тому

      A press is needed

    • @geoded
      @geoded 8 місяців тому

      The press is useful both to remove and insert the new bushing but you can get away without one if you're crafty. You can drill / hacksaw out out the old rubber & casing. A vice should be sufficient to get the new ones in too. Again, easier with a press but you can work around it if you're trying to DIY.

    Hi mate. I would throw those bushings in the bin and get genuine rubber. You're losing flex by putting these in. Ive snapped diff mounts off using poly bushes.
    Just my experience.

    • @Zaff_TT

    On the ride stiffness, was it bad? I mean how was it with road bumps? Thanks in advance.

    • @Zaff_TT
      @Zaff_TT  2 роки тому

      You get more vibration when you go in potholes or hit road bumps but thats expected with the added stiffness from the poly bushings. It's not bad in my opinion but for others it might be. I hope this helps :)

      @@Zaff_TT Thanks for the feedback. I've just ordered the same Castor correction bushes as you have but going by what you're saying, I've opted for the OEM rubber (radius arm to chassis) bushes which I hope will reduce this somewhat. I think polyurethane Bushes are great but since I use my Jimny 99% on-road, I believe rubber will be slightly better for me. Love your channel BTW ☺

    Did the arm line up when you put them back in the front, without the shocks connected?
