Note that this part number gets you two bushes - you only need to order one.

The OEM item is more than a Poly Bush......!!

So would you all still go for OEM over Poly?

The powerflex ones have been known to fail due to their shitty 2 peice design

This failure has happened when driving, id always used OEM or treehouse racing ones.

i've heard of the concentric (one piece) bushes failing (pushing out of the lolipop) but never the eccentric ones. i've run them myself on the rally car for 4 years and have never had any issues.
