Rubber vs Urethane bushes

[cheesygrinner]

Looking into replacing my control arm bushes as they are worn out. Does anyone have any advice or experience in original rubber vs urethane type bushes?

I guess I depends on application and ride?

Thanks

I'd use rubber, the others are too harsh.

^^^ I completely agree! I had Nolathane bushes fitted to my ute, and I bought extra grease and used the whole lot on them... 7 months later not matter how much spray on grease you apply, I cannot get them to stop squeaking :/

I will be changing back to rubber at some stage soon...

Rubber or a good chance of a cracked chassis.

Rubber all the way on older cars.

The lower control arm on my wb split around the bush. Rubber bush as well. The control arm had next to no metal around the bush. Dodgy from the factory. Something to look for on all control arms.
