Polybush has created the 40BC, an uprated replacement for the Ford Transit front wishbone rear bush.

Due to the position of the front wishbone rear bush, Polybush says it suffers from compression set caused by the force from the weight of the vehicle and its load during braking; made worse by pot holes, speed bumps and rough ground.

Polybush claims to solve this problem by using high quality polyurethane, which it says will not suffer from compression set and as such lasts “four to five times longer” than the original rubber.

“The 40BC solves problems, reduces down time and saves money without negatively affecting the overall ride of the vehicle,” it said.

The 40BC has a recommended retail price of £51.20, excluding VAT, per part set of two.
