Nah, thats the americanised version! Bushes = perfectly correct.

About the alloy bushes idea. Not a good as rubber bushes are usually only used on a joint that articulates in several axis. Alloy would not allow this and bend things. Spherical joints are the best bet in these areas and contrary to the popular myth about noise, they aren't horribly noisey unless you use cheap and nasty spherical joints.

As dogs danglies says the body can flex when you go over to spherical mounts to reinforce anything that looks like it needs it. Same applies for poly bushes though just not to the same extent.
