In all likeliness you will need part number FD01-26-220 or 230, lower pillow balls. I think they are about 46+vat each from Mazda in the UK the last time I checked.

WELL I WISH I HAD SEEN THAT SITE EARLIER, I JUST HAD THE TWO REAR UPPER PILLOW BUSHES DONE BY RX MOTORS, This week, the car has done 57k and all the rest are ok, i would do them myself having seen it done, quite straight forward really, but while the car was on the ramps i had a new fuel filter fitted,Thats  Not a nice job to do!

hmmmm I think these have deteriorated on my rear end (phnarr phnarr) how much are they over here... 45 quid each plus vat  x 6...  270 plus vat plus labour... say 2 hours... hmmm 400 quid!!!

ouch...

ok I answered my own question there...

am thinking of starting my own business soon so might use the rex as a company car and so get it all paid for...  by the business... could run up a big business overdraft woning a rex as a compnay car!!!
