well ive read a whole heap of bushes threads and they basically say you cant trust online catalogs etc so i really just want to know which exact bushes to get for m 1991 TT soarer.

im looking at the superpro bushes for the lower control arms and upper control arms. would be a great help if someone could supply me with the part numbers so i could just call up or go into supercheap with the part numbers. thanks

By report of some people who have driven both, far worse than rubber, and with faster deterioration. Getting urethane will feel good at first because you are probably replacing very worn bushes.

I used VFT bushes in mine but I hear Peter Taplin does good aftermarket rubber bushes as well.

Here is
an extensive read on bushes

Looks like Vlamos rubber Bushes are the best from that read.

From what i have been told Urethane bushes are more stiffer for performance vehicles.

Guys,

Branz bushes from Peter Taplin are the bush of choice for me. Give him a call and ask him about them. He is a very approachable guy, and can give you heaps of good advice about Soarers in general.
