    Rear bush kit?

    Turns out the reason for my vibrating ride would appear to be knackered sus bushes at the rear (S14a, 73k).

    By the time I found the 3rd bush allowing considerable 'play' it occured to me that I can't trust any of them back there.

    So is there a rear nylon bush kit with all the bushes? No geometry correction needed -just straight replacements.

    Well after the 3rd worn bush on one side I thought it might be best to just do the lot at the back, rather than keep taking the hubs off only to find that there's still vibration.

    That said, I've since had a look at the powerflex website and, at 15 quid ish each, I might be better off trying to guess which are the worst ones after all!

    £15 how the F can they justify that for a bit of plastic?

    I need the same as you Creasey, I'm gonna do them all in 1 go, so I don't have to keep taking the hubs off..


    Actually does'nt Steve Carter Supply these to SXOC members for a good price? Bren how would your price compare, for bush's for all the arms?

    I do them effectively without the vat. I think Steves cheaper than me.
