This was posted on one of the FB groups, a Toyota Suspension Engineer has discussed the new suspension on the defender. Lots of clear photos and descriptions on all the bits. I found it an interesting read

Very similar to my L494 RRS suspension and undoubtably the FF RR and D5.
Lots of bushes to wear/fail and the two ball joints lower down at the front are easily damaged. I was looking at mine while doing the front diff oil change and noticed both ball joint boots on the LHS were damaged from my last off road drive. I'd say I picked up a stick which tore the rubber.

The INEOS Grenadier is looking good for my next vehicle. It's coming down to the Grenadier, 300 series or MUX.
