    Panhard Rod Bushes

    Saw on the weekend that my front panhard rod bushes are shot. I got the extended panhard from a very well known manufacturer up in QLD and the bushes are shot after 2 years.

    So, I'm just wondering what are the best bushes I could use? OEM or another brand????

    Thanks .

    The original black rubber bushes are considered the best by a lot of forum members. Apparently when they fail it is slowly so give you time to replace them. I have been advised that the after-market ones last just as long but tend to fail in shorter time span. It has been mentioned that some types of none black rubber bushes actually wear the metal components.

    I was looking at the Nolathane bushes, they're about the sam price as OEM. That Nolathane stuff is supposed to be pretty good isn't it????

    OEM gets my vote for reasons prev mentioned
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
