Polybush Dog Mount Fail....

[Gavin J]

I fitted a polybush kit to my twisted dog bone mount just before xmas and i found this when fitting a ktec exhaust on saturday,

Anyone else has this problem? pretty shocked it only lasted a couple of months!

Whoops... Looks like somebody didn't fit the washers supplied with the kit?!

 

[Henry]

did you fit the washers? (can't tell from pic)

 

[T.Trophy]

Deffo no large penny washer there.

 

[James.f]

funny you should mention this, but that part on mine has disappeared when i was under the car today, its only lasted a 15min blast, (i forgot to put the washer on) woops

 

[Gavin J]

Oh s**t, i fitted it but didn't get a washer in the box?

 

[the_prophet]

cant expect much else really, the washers pretty vital.

 

[Gray]

LOL!

 

[Gavin J]

haha oh well, we live and learn i guess! on the bright side the ktec exhaust i fitted on the weekend went on a treat, well impressed.

Must admit thats one i thing i hate about polybush kits is that the washers are always just loose in the box.....

 

[Gray]

Its a pretty vital component... A washer for the top and bottom, if not you have the whole force of the engine pushing and pulling on a piece of polyurethane

 

[James.f]

^ oh is that were the other one goes, s**t iv put it on the other part of the dogbone lol, They should put instructions in the box tbh,

 

[Gavin J]

Yep, just checked ktec pic i deffo didn't fit that washer and don't remember it being in the box either...or any washers for that matter?

 

[Gray]

 

[TwisTz]

I wasn't supplied washers with mine either. Yikes.

 

[DannoTheGreat]

ooh, get another kit sorted fella! it looks dodgy as f**k in that pic

 

[Sym0n]

They should put instructions in the box tbh

They do, albeit pretty generic ones, printed on one of the flaps you have to open to get in and at the bushes. Occasionally there's even additional printed info on a little slip of paper, i.e. Wishbone bushes to instruct you to get the sleeve welded to the arm.

happened to me, with the washer on i add! i emailed powerflex and in the morning on the door mat was a new one! great customer service, you should do the same and say there was no washer in the kit, thay will prob send you a new bush and a washer.

You'll have a job...unless you really want an envelope filled with Polyurethane ashes.

:clown:

Powerflex are open and trading now - spoke to them at autosport international

Ordered a set of dog mount bushes on monday on ebay and got them today

 

[Gavin J]

I emailed Powerflex and explained the problem and asked if i could buy the split bush seperately to save me buying a complete kit again and they are sending me replacement parts free of charge

 

[Cup_Phil]

Can't argue with service like that!

 

[scotty2hotty81]

Told you so great customer service

 

[Gavin J]

Arrived today! how good is that?!
