In our workshop we have used all forms of bushes, Nolathane (fail - too hard), Noltec (extreme fail - no consistency, crumbles) and Superthane (too hard also) and we settled with the Super Pro brand because they do things correctly and develop their bushes and also the alloy and steel shell bonding process is much more advanced which reduces the risk of separation.
In alot of cases Hardened rubber or OEM is a good option, polyurethane has its place in the performance market too.
