Post by: GOLF-MK3-GTI on 13 March 2013, 09:57
I need rear trailing arm bushes for my MK3 GTI, I can't seem to find polyflex one's though? Can you get them or am i pissing in the wind here trying to find some?  :rolleyes:

If so can someone post a link, where to buy from?

just two different designs , the original ones the rubber sits inside a metal sleve which needs the old one burning and the race cutting out and the new one pressing in .

the poly powerflex one just burn out the old one , cut the metal sleve out , and grease up just slide the rubber in , and tap the metal sleve in the middle to open the bush out and your fitted , million times quicker .....
