We all know this is replaced to make your engine and drivetrain much more stable when accelerating hard and under heavy engine braking conditions.

Is Forge the recommended replacement part make?

Is Forge the recommended replacement part make?


I bought the forge one from website.  Received a yellow powerflex one in post?
Decided not to fit it in the end.  Going for the R32 one when I get some reddies together.

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.
