Anyone had experience of psb lower cAstor bushings. Here’s mine....

Little while ago I scrambled my large ***** under the car and saw that these bushings has about as much life in them as someone who lived through Pompei. Horrific, split and fit for nothing. 
 

I started to look around, was put off by Lexus parts direct price and went with psb. Initially I noticed a majestic difference. Having had them in for a few weeks though I think I have bought a lemon in that the car crashes “through” not over bumps and I’ve had a god awful creaking on car. 
 

Mechanic told me rear sub frame bushings went but I seem to be following the noise rather than it following me. These art he only things I’ve changed and I had read somewhere the poly spins in the carrier. 
 

Anyone else experienced this. I’m thinking on an 04 car it’s shopping list time, furnish Lexus parts direct with a load of cash and refresh everything rubber on the front. 
 

keen to see what others thoughts of poly bushes are for comfort use....

PSBs will give a firmer ride, so not good for replacing all the bushes. Many other car forums advise being careful about us of PSB across all the running gear.

I would alway with Lexus OEM if possible in replacing any bushes, apart from Upper Control arms where the whole unit needs replacing.

The creaking is a side effect, maybe have a read of this rubber v poly
