Hey all,
My upper control arm bushes are stuffed, caused me to wear out an expensive set of tyres in about 6-7 thousand K's (really bad camber wear on the outside, the inside of the tyre look pretty new). the local import garage quoted me 1400 to re-bush and told me my stub axle had a stuffed uni-joint... I was bullshitted yeah?
so I've decided to do the work myself, the current upper control arm itself should be fine, but I just want to double check my plans with some more experienced folk to make sure I'm not wasteing my cash on unneeded or incorrect parts.
I'm planning on rebushing the upper control arm with this set from uniqueautoparts.com; Clicky bush's inplace image
I've also noticed that my castor rod inner bush has gone soft from contact with engine oil, have been looking around and have seen images that look like what I'm after but the part is a called a "radius rod" bush is this the same as the castor rod bush?
cheers
Dan
