High Performance Bushing Replacement - No Squeaks
Protected by US Patent 7,325,796
Want to experience precision driving, faster lap times, improved road feel and feedback?
Our patented PolyBronze suspension bearings set a new standard for performance, ride quality and ease-of-installation.
Regular polyurethane/plastic suspension bushings are obsolete!
PolyBronze is a precision bronze bearing encased in a polyurethane jacket. The combination delivers a smooth-ride with the extreme performance of a metal bearing.
• No Squeaks
• Smooth ride quality
• Easy installation
• Integral Grease fittings and grooves
• Extremely low friction
PolyBronze bearings are superior to plastic bushing alternatives, here's why:
Suspension mounts are coarse sheet metal pressings. They tend to be out-of-round and have irregularities that deform ordinary polyurethane bushings, pinching and binding the friction surface. Polyurethane is "grippy" with an inherently high coefficient of friction and combined with pinching polyurethane bushings create a lot of friction. The result is a harsh ride and reduced tyre adhesion.
PolyBronze have a rigid bronze bearing core that does not deform. The polyurethane jacket absorbs mount irregularities while the bronze inner bearing remains true, providing a free-moving machined-fit that rides on a precision race. Provided grease fittings make re-lubrication a breeze and a figure 8 groove keeps grease in place.
The combination delivers zero squeaks and friction-free suspension movement. Well suited to street or track, ride quality. PolyBronze bearings replace compressible factory rubber bushings.

Why do Porsche Spring plates matter?
Spring plates sit between the torsion bars or springs and the rear suspension on many Porsche models, and play a key role in how the rear of the car moves, feels and can be adjusted. Over time the plates and especially their bushes can wear or corrode, which affects how smoothly the suspension articulates and how accurately ride height and geometry can be set. Renewing tired components helps the rear suspension work freely again and supports precise setup for road or track use.
- Keep the rear of your Porsche feeling consistent and controlled
- Support accurate ride height and geometry adjustment during setup
- Reduce unwanted noises from worn bushes and sticking movement
- Help maintain long-term enjoyment and potential resale appeal of classic Porsche models

When should you review or replace your Porsche spring plates?
Checking spring plates and their bushes during suspension work helps you spot wear, damage or age-related deterioration before it affects comfort, refinement or leads to more expensive repairs later on.
- Existing parts are worn, cracked, noisy, corroded or seized
- You notice knocking, squeaking, binding, inconsistent ride height or harshness over bumps
- Rear alignment or ride-height adjustment has become difficult or unstable
- You are carrying out a wider suspension refresh, geometry setup or restoration
If any of these apply, it is a good time to review your spring plates and replace anything that is past its best so your Porsche stays dependable and enjoyable to drive.
