Hi All

Do you know of any developments in manufacture of these bushes, It was suggested I take the parts off and send away, but I can\'t shift the bolts myself, would like to get the car back on the road before the summer as it\'s been gathering dust for nearly 2 years!!

Hi All

Just managed to find the pic of the offending suspension part! The bushes that need replacing are in the Arm marked with a \'X\' ,

This bush is required LHS & RHS all other bushes seem to be OK , only these failed the MOT

Hope it can be sorted soon!

Personally i wouldn\'t just replace 2 bushes with aftermarket ones. Depending on which you decide to go for they could casue more stress on the older weakened bushes causing them to deteriorate quicker. Just a thought.
 
Have you looked at getting stock replacements?

I\'m told that it\'s not possible to get stock Bushes separate from the Arms, which are Ca £300 each from Japan! Item 28-500B on the Drawing marked in red!
