Default Poly suspension leaf & front A arm lift bushings???

Merry Christmas,
It's been a while, I hope everyone is doing well.
I'm doing some major work to cart. What does anyone know about replacing all suspension bushings with poly vs rubber? This is for a 03 DS. The rubber are junk! I need about 36 EA rubber/ bushings. Is poly better than rubber? I had about 8 EA that flattend out. Thanks Steve

Poly bushings are going to be much stiffer than rubber and cause a rougher ride (if that's possible in a golf cart ) I'd stick with rubber if it were me. The poly will last longer, but the extra stiffness wouldn't be worth it IMO. Good work so far on the build!!!

Where did you get the bushings? I'm looking for bright green bushings for the shocks?
