No worries, I have the bushes, I'll just have to get my own coffee then

ummm, no. I will take the rod off the car and get her to drop it down to JC's.

I am not keen driving it at the moment, it feels like the front end is held together with jelly

girls car......maybe but at least it gets dirty

cheers

I have only ever used poly's in the panhard rod as they give better steering repsonse and stand up to the constant load better than rubber bush's- this is the only place i would use poly's in a rover. Like all poly's if you use them in dusty conditions constantly the dust will cause them to chew out but they are easier to replace not needing a press. In Tas poly's will be fine.

OUCH!!! Hey, chicks dig scars, and scars on Disco's too, like mine

The other good thing about this forum, aside from excellent advice, is the stirring amongst us
