    trailing arm bushes

    I have to replace the trailing arm bushes, the ones where the arm meets the chassis.

    The current ones are flogged out due to the pressure on them with the lift and I saw that LRA sell an angled bush.

    Is anyone using them, and if so, are they any good.

    The LRA angled bush is a very good product.

    the issue isnt with droop its with compression, if there is more rubber at the top of the bush then it will be harder to compress, the opposite with the thin side.
    have you tried the super pro chassis bushes cal? the ones that have the waisting around the bush?
    they worked really well on the 90 and were still on it when it was sold..the ute will get some soon too.

    cheers phil

    We chucked a complete SuperPro blue kit on the Turdis the other day

    Handles awesome on the road

    Flexes up fairly well. ATM standard sized dampners are stopping both extension and compression
