What are they like?

 

cheap s**t thats all i can say about them .get some descent ones you get what you pay for

 

i've got them and have had no problems what so ever

 

I have just fitted some and they dont seem quite rite, i thought it may be me.

 

your better off with the standard ford one then deflex if you compair them to some decent one you will see and the quality of them are very poor. The car will feel horrible with them on mine did

 

www.superflex.co.uk these are much better

 

after finally getting mine after a 3 month wait ! i have found that most are way too small and a lot are even softer than standard ford

not worth the hassle , save up and buy powerflex or superflex

 

Me too.

 

Totally agree, they are crap on other vehicles to, mate tried fittin the complete set to his off roader, and none of the bushes seemed to fit right, very poorly made.

You get what you pay for, some peeps will say they have never had a problem with them, they are lucky. Generally speakin i would go for powerflex bushes. I will be now, as i was strongly considering Deflex before, but after seein the hassle my mate had, i have changed my mind.

 

i must be one of the lucky one's then

 

I fell into their trap too - put a full set on my 3i and hated them. Shit (build) quality, shit ride from them, just shit really...

 

Very poor quality

Powerflex for me

 

can't complain...people say my car drives/feels well and i like it...never had any others to compair.....

 

Did Deflex not go under a few months back?

 

Ive had them on my xr2 for about three years no problems at all

 

ive had them on all my cars and never had a problem what so ever

they weer a lot better tnan std ford items anyhow

i will be ordering again aswell

 

i've got them on my s2 no probs either

 

deflex were crap on my saff lasted a few months then just felt like crap !!
RS500 has superflex very good still going after over 4 years

 

I have deflex on my Mk2 Fiesta and had no prob's

thanks peeps

 

got em on my saff .. no problems with fitting at all

 

i use them, no probs at all, in fact i actually changed a few back to ford as it was to hard a ride !!!

never had fit probs.

a friend had them make some custom bushes for his lotus carlton ( the only company to offer there help !! ) and they only needed a small mod to fit , but then they never had the car just an old bush......

at the end of the day the bush is only as good as the materials its made from, poly is poly who ever makes it. if you want to pay Ł80 for a Ł10 bush that's up to you !!!!!

 

iv ran deflex for about 5 years now, never had an issue, but there a lot that seem to

 

i started using them on both of my cars about 4 years ago.

a few failure's at first, but no issue's for 3+ years, i think that was due to a problem with the poly they used, but they soon sorted that.

 

i've used em on all 3 Rs's that i have owned

no issues whatsoever (apart from them occasionally sending the worng bushes out )

company went into liquidation recently, but are trading again and they are soo cheap
.

 

I was a lucky one too then
Full front end set on my Sapph plus rear beam, no problems for the price.
I got mine about 4 years ago, so I don't know if anything has changed since..?
