    In my experience, polybushes don't last very long at all. I won't touch them now.

    On my Ford Capri that "warped disc brake judder" was actually caused by worn bushes in the bottom track control arm. It felt exactly the same as a warped brake disc and was a common fault on old Capris and Escorts often mis-diagnosed as being the discs. Given how cheap they are, I would suggest replacing them especially if they've not been done for a long time. I know you've polybushed them but those bushes don't last forever.
    I agree. After the amount of work that's been done on the brakes, I'd be looking deeper, at the bits the wheels hang off.
