Guest xr3i Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'm fitting a set of flo-flex orange poly bushes to the rear end this weekend. Is there anything I need to know about, any suprises, or difficulties I'm gonna run into? Also will I need any other parts to fit at the same time that don't come in the kit?

Guest Eggsy Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 burn the originals out as they can be quite a pain in the rs, as for refitting - fairly liquid & a vice should do it nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xr3i Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 two thirds of the way through, getting the inner wishbone bushes out was the hardest bit so far, the polys I'm fitting are the easy fit ones, a doddle to put in, no vices or muscles, just a G clamp and a drop of fairy liquid for the wee outer ones, and a tap with a mallet for the inner one.... Just finishing off the drivers side, and finishing removal of the passenger side rubbers. Be done by about 4pm if we take our time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
