Rear Bush Advice
 

Hi All,

Whilst tackling the rusty strut towers and arches on my Turbo 2000, I have taken the plunge and bought new struts, springs and a rear control arm kit like this:

I plan on also changing the anti-roll bar and drop-links, along with their bushes, but I was wondering whether there is anything else I should look to do whilst I'm at this stage, any other bushes etc that are not covered in the kit I've bought?

Thanks

I did see this kit listed but i'm sceptical of the quality for such a low price.. especially how it'l last over time!

What kind of shape is your subframe in? Are you replacing the ARB mounts?

I'm currently replacing the whole lot, Subframe, diff T brace, arms and associated bushes. roll bar and mounts, drop links, all new OEM fixings from ICP

At the minute I've got new shocks, springs and mounts, new 2 pots, pads, discs and the godspeed bracket, the control arm kit, 20mm Cusco ARB, Whiteline drop links and whiteline ARB mounts.... so pretty much the whole rear end.

Whilst I'm at this stage I will probably do the sub-frame and diff mount bushes. once everything is stripped out I'll be removing all rust etc and under-sealing.

My plan was to strip out the OEM control arms set-up and have it blasted and powder coated then get new bushes and keep them as a future replacement should the kit turn out to be rubbish.
