Powerflex Coffin Track Control Arms

[Flightrisk]

I came across these on the Powerflex website, complete replacement coffin arms with their own polyurethane bushes included.

These are a new thing for me and never seen them before, does anyone have experience of using or fitting them? Any reviews, good or bad?

Been around since the ark was in use.
Great but can be harsh and transmit vibration if the compound is too hard etc. Depends on the bush compound. Google is your friend.

Is that correct? They would appear to only have been launched last year.

I was just talking about poly bushed arms generally. Apologies if you meant powerflex in particular.

Ya I have bought TRW coffin arms in the past and fitted the central polybush, it was in fact the Powerflex purple ones, but not seen an entire arm assembly from a bush manufacturer before.

Obviously you also have the connection linkages at either end that need to be of good quality so wondering about the quality of the part in general. Despite the name Chassis Technology Europe (CTE) appears to be a Taiwanese manufacturer and looking at their available range for my Gen 2 C2 these parts seem to be very cheap! Hence I am wondering if anyone has already gone down this path?
