General advice from folks who have fitted complete sets on LR3's and LR4's is that they had a severely detrimental effect on the handling. Most of those who tried them have since gone back to fitting OE style rubber bushes.

I might still replace specific worn bushes, like the lower swing arms, with the Polybushes as the original rubber ones degrade...but haven't had any worn bushes yet to try them out. As for fitting a full set...I don't really relish the thought of my 3...

One thing that's on my wish list is fitting polybushes once the rubber suspension bushes get worn and need replacing....Not cheap at around £600 for a full set but well worth it in the long run as it's waving goodbye to ever having MOT advisories for 'slightly worn' swing arm bushes.
