I use Powerflex bushes, mainly because I've been using their bushes since I first came across them for my Sierra some twenty odd years ago - Powerflex grew from Power Engineering who were Sierra specialists back then. Sierra 4x4s used to eat through the front bushes in less than a year, which resulted in the front tyres wearing unevenly. The Powerflex ones solved the problem and were still working fine when I sold the car.
I haven't seen the same problems as Hans did, but I don't use polyurethane ARB to subframe bushes. The original MG Metro bushes are nylon and provide a good location for the ARB, but do wear, so I prefer to replace them with new nylon bushes rather than polyurethane.
I can supply Powerflex bushes and I'm usually a few pounds cheaper as I'm not VAT registered.
