Forge dont do there own, they are just a supplier for powerflex bushes.

R32 dog mount is roughly £60 from stealers, Powerflex bushes below £20. personally id go with the cheaper option as there just as good.

Cheers for the feedback guys.....

Hulmie hows the car running after the engine work are you pleased with it? Whats next?

You need to update your signature pic  :laugh:

Not a major job to fit i believe, bout 1 hour tops. Just a case of unbolting the mount, then undoing the bolt that holds the bush in place, insert new bush, bolt back together, and refit.
