Shock Absorber Bush - Polyurethane is a polyurethane mounting bush that fits into the shock absorber mounting eyes, locating the damper at its chassis and axle attachment points.

Polyurethane construction offers greater resistance to oil and road contamination compared to standard rubber, with reduced compliance for more precise damper geometry under repeated suspension cycles.

Frequently asked questions

What is the polyurethane shock absorber bush and what does it do?
The polyurethane shock absorber bush fits into the shock absorber mounting eyes, locating the damper at its chassis and axle attachment points. Polyurethane resists oil and road contamination better than rubber and has less give, holding the damper geometry more precisely through repeated suspension cycles.
How many shock absorber bushes do I need per damper?
Each shock absorber typically takes a bush at both mounting eyes, so a single damper usually needs a pair and a full axle four. They're sold individually, so count the mounting eyes you're refreshing and order to suit. Many people renew all of them together.
Which models and VIN ranges does this shock absorber bush fit?
It fits Defender (1986-2016), Discovery 1 (1989-1998), Range Rover Classic (1970-1994) and Series 2/2A/3 109-inch. Several applications have VIN cut-offs, for example Defender rear to VIN WA159806 and Range Rover Classic front (less roll bar) to HA471543. Use your VIN to confirm.
Why fit polyurethane shock absorber bushes instead of rubber?
Polyurethane shock bushes resist perishing from oil, heat and road grime far better than rubber, so they last longer and keep the damper located precisely. Worn shock bushes usually cause knocking over bumps and sloppy damping. The firmer poly material is a common upgrade on working Land Rovers.
