Re: Poly anti roll bar kit.
You really do not want poly for the bits that go into the lower arms, rubber is bad enough to fit.

Re: Poly anti roll bar kit.
When I rebuilt the front suspension on mine, I got the bushes from Lotusbits and they recommended poly for the ARB to body and rubber ARB to lower link. Getting the big rubber doughnut into the lower link is a nightmare. The rubber for the current ones is much harder than the originals making it difficult (thats an understatement) to squeeze in.
Cheers, Phil

Re: Poly anti roll bar kit.
Is the bush for the lower arm in 2 pieces? Would make it easier to fit, but would it work as intended/expected?
