So what's the go with these Bushes. I'm getting Backlash and clunking with my Factory revised bushes even sometimes when just cruising totally normally. The Ford guy says Totally normal and fine for it to happen, and that there is no cracks, had it up on hoist and no cracks were found.

Which ones retain the best quietness and comfort and get rid of the clunking.

I also drive a near new Supercharged FG and it had absolutely no clunking at all, the Ford guy says because its a totally different car in how it works

I got told to go Superpro, but is Nolathane the better choice?

Quietest is always gonna be the factory bushes.

Haha I realise you were making a gay joke Arron, I know you too well remember!

Which rear Nolathane do you have Arron? The one in my photo above, or this one below:87707b256530d6eb7d4f8011e41da467.jpg

I have 49159

Ah yep, so 49159 is the b series equivalent of the 49171 Nolathane I currently have in the car. The new one is supposed to be quieter...

The ford guy is full of it. A few 1000 ks driven hard and the bushes will be flogged

Todd has 171 in the rear. Not sure about the front. Will have a look tomorrow. It was noticeably noisier after they were done
