Hello Bill,

Are these for the W460/461/463 or does the set fit all?

What exactly does the set include?

Very interesting....

Well your topic title is Poly Budhes

Poly = many
Budha = God of Merchandise or Planet Mercury in Hindu Mythology

Thus Many Gods of Merchandise or Many Mercuries

Re: Poly budhes

Any chance of a more accurate link to the bushes themselves or a part no? It's not obvious where they are on the site. Thanks.

Re: Poly budhes

They are in stock at LA Super Trux if you are serious about buying them, email or phone them if you want to get them from MB do just that, ICBA.

http://workshop.supertrux.com/

I have produced these purley for my own needs and some extras for those who appreciate a quality product to replace existing, not a cheap alternative, I am not getting in to discussions about price and all that and I am not giving them away, Both LA and ORC are happy with the quality and they set their prices. They will replace the stocks from my manufacturer as they sell what they have.
Making sarcastic or disparaging comments will not help you one bit, pee or get off the pot.

Re: Poly budhes

I was expecting MB to be much more expensive.
I will prefer Poly over rubber anytime.
At least this is the experts opinion.
The price for the whole set is not too bad (supertrux) either.
Congratulations for this product Bill.
Can you not offer GWOA members some discount ?
I think we all deserve that privilige since we are in the same club with the
original designer/manufacturer.

Talk to the retailers Shakir. I only developed the product and brought it into the market.

Re: Poly budhes

I think they give a better ride on highway because the rebound of poly is better than rubber. I also think they will last longer because there is no rubber to metal bonding to rust and delaminate and the metal centre bush is pressed in after the bush is inserted to give it the tight fit rather than having to press in a metal bush interference fit into the radius arm.

Re: Poly budhes

They keep a set of arms (powder coated) made up. the idea being you drive in go for a long walk and get back to the job done.
