The std one can be poly filled, my mate did a few for me, one of which is in Iceland on a 1/4 mile sprint car, it's been perfect, how long would it last ?, it would outlast the normal type of poly rear imo, it simply adds resistance to the std one so no fitting issues, and last one cost me £25 to do, the mount is sealed on one side, then held so the top surface is level, then filled with poly slowly so no air bubbles, and allowed to set, makes a massive difference to stiffness, over a much much larger area than the "std" poly type.

why would it out last the normal type of polly ones lol you are just filling in the voids over the rubber each side of a standard one also the ones you buy have a much smaller flexy part so less likely to wear out as it will not move about as much and mine bolted on no harder than a standard one did
