Default Linkage Bushes

A while back there was a guy here selling linkage bushes, i have some fitted and they are still fine, but i have always questioned their friction properties and if they affect the suuspension much.

Anyway i cam across a video on a dakar truck that has been using Visconite to make suspension bushes for their Dakar truck. Anyone tried using this to make linkage/swingarm bearings? Does look like it could make maintenance a bit easier (and also prevent the swingarm axle seizing on the bearings!)
