Well... if its 100 quid for the bushes... lets say 1/2 - 1 hour labour to fit them into the bushes... you might as well just buy the WALK.

Theres something about that offset superpro bush that i dont like. I would go WALK every time...  :happy2:

The main issue with the whiteline kit is the grease dries out then causes the bushes to split?  You saw Jake's cracked whiteline console case?   :drinking:

Whiteline kit is around 180 and the Superpro is 150 and far superior quality.  I changed from the whiteline to the Superpro as I was so impressed with the build and materials used.

May I ask what impressed you about the supepro bushes as you have experience of both kits.  Is the quality of superpro superior to that whittline?

As soon as you put the two versions together you can see the quality of the Superpro.  Bush is fully bonded to the console with a metal covered insert.  I will try and find some pics.

Does anyone have the part number for the kit please? I can only find bushes on the Superpro website, not the ALK & bush pack. Thanks

Thanks alex.  Does it come as a complete kit, is their maintenance for this part?  Whats your website?

Yeah they come as a kit.  You get the consoles and the bushes moulded into them.  Just use the pack of grease that comes with them and this keeps all the crap out.  They come with a 3 year/36,000 mile warranty too.  My website is www.akstuning.co.uk or check out my facebook for day to day activity.

Ordered the kit from Alex  :drinking:


Alex, could you confirm which bushes you would recommend have changed at the same time? As mentioned on the phone, I wouldn't want to go to poly but wanted to order replacement VW OEM ones to freshen it up. It is a bit hard to find part numbers without really knowing the ones to change in the first place  :confused:

So has anyone who has fitted a WALK recently had issues with the bushes?

I'm looking to buy a anti lift kit of some sort soon but am a little sceptical of the Superpro offset bush and concerned over the longevity of the new compound polybush in the Whiteline kit!!  :confused:
