Not the Super-pro's... but Ive tried the Whiteline ones Whiteline Suspension Bushings for LAND ROVER - RANGE ROVER DISCOVERY 4 (2009-ON)

I put up with them for 2 months before changing them for a complete new lower control arm from Advanced Factors.

The Whitelines ones were so harsh.. felt like my front tyres were at 50psi (they were at 35).

Watch the length of movement.

A hydro bush has a far greater range - a more "solid" material will start to bind and compress.

Haha at the moment that will just show that my rear bushes are cactus, not the intended range of movement.

Remember that ride you paid a lot of money for? [emoji41]
Worth the correct parts to retain the quality. [emoji56]

This is where I will be getting the parts from unless someone has a better UK supplier/s. I have to order the parts and get shipped to Darwin I'm in Cooktown ATM so I'm putting faith in the delivery system :) https://www.lrdirect.com/home.php

Oh I agree. The cost of the hydrolastic bushes isnt my concern (they're $80 each plus shipping) - it was more the longevity and ease of installation as i dont have a press.

I'm also trying to find whats the best value for me at the moment. A while set of arms i can change myself, but I'm pretty sure i only need new rear bushes.

I'm thinking of knocking up a small one out of scrap steel now though. Anyone had experience with any good portable presses?

Is Lemforder equivalent to OEM?

https://www.lrdirect.com/LR051586-su...LEMFORDER.html

They are easier to find.

Just looking at that link though they may be a rebranded britpart...

According to Advanced Factors they are

KIT603 LEMFORDER OEM DISCOVERY 3 & 4 FRONT LOWER ARMS & BOLT KIT

If you are looking for another alternative contact Les Richmond Auto. They have had a rubber bush made.

Possibly worth a look..

Don't get Britpart, they don't last.
