I cut out the old bushes and replaced them with Superpro ones from Stocks. They are an absolute P.I.T.A to get the old bushes out of as they are bonded in. I have heard of people burning them out but I (carefully) cut them out with a hole saw and then cleaned up the inside of the eye.

Cheers

I had my local suspension shop do mine (a kit of poly bushes, also from Stocks). My sus shop charged me $30 from memory.

I recently bought some adjustable links from the US, which enable the use of NA or NB bars in a NA chassis.

Would concur with Euan's comments - a pain to get the old bushings out. I used a bench vice, a selection of sockets & a considerable collection of swear words.

Also replaced with the superpro bushings from Stocks in Mt Wellington.

Have fun !
