Full kit of Wishbone Bushes for my D4

Hi guys,

I'm still fighting with my Disco4 rattles and now I'm coming up with the idea of replacing all the bushes (wishbones and anti roll bar).

The best option I have seems to be Polybush kit of bushes, but I'm hesitating between the Red (performance) or Orange (Dynamic) ones.

90% onroad driving.

Has someone tried this bushes? Any suggestion will be highly appreciated! Wink
Cheers.

Thanks mates Wink

I've just talked to a guy who has tried Polybushes as well as Superpro with worst results!!
Too hard but not enough tough (both of them) since he has to replace them after 20.000 kms...
...perhaps, this might be the difference between rubber and polyurethane...I guess.

Finally I have decided replacing front lower wishbone as well as the anti roll bar bushes (front) and I we will see!

Original ones seem to be the best option (best ratio quality/cost/manpower)

Cheers!

RRS arms or bushes are the same as the amoured D3 ones if it helps.

Hi mate!

Thanks for your comments. Today I'm planning to go to the dealer for asking them the possibility of replacing the wishbones for the RRS ones (not sure if RRS ones will fit to my D4).
Despite to the fact that I usually do not offroad, since this car seems to be quite delicate I prefer the resistant ones...

Cheers

There's quite a difference between the suspension feel on the 2010MY and the 2012MY, and an independent LR garage advised that they had upgraded the bushes due to past problems but were not publicising it; not sure if that is true, but the 2012 is definitely much tighter so may be worth trying 2012MY parts if they are interchangeable?

Great info at a good timing since I'm intending to go to the dealer within the coming days.
If possible, will try the 2012MY wishbones for sure!

Will update !!

Cheers Wink
