How are all you polybushed S's finding the transformation, and how long are these bushes lasting?
I have heard that they wear out quicker than their OEM counter parts.
And that its worth considering swapping out to OEM for a longer term solution.

Who told you that? OEM bush salesman?

Poly bushes should essentially last forever.

Since changing over my steering hasn't fet quite right but I think this is more likely an alignment problem and I plan to get Chris (CG) to have a look at it.

I don't think anyone has had them long enought to have had problems with them wearing out.

If you were to replace OEM with OEM you stall run the risk of the bushes seizing. Poly bushes won't seize and even if the do wear out they will be much easier to replace than the OEM metalic bushes.
