Changed the anti roll bar bushes today as the old ones were past there best. These were the fronts

The rears pretty much just fell apart so replaced them with poly bushes in the hope they will last a lot longer.

Thumbs Up thank you. Last job for a while done today, new rear trailing arm bushes. No pics but I’m hoping I’m done with bushes for a year or two now Laughing Ray

Another problem free couple of thousand miles around France and back for the last couple of weeks with seven people and associated luggage and roof box fitted and still got 27/28 mpg which I think is pretty good Mr. Green

Needs a good wash now though and about half a beach worth of sand hoovering out Big Cry Ray

Also, I wish I’d fitted cruise control years ago! What a difference it makes to long journeys, it’s well worth the reasonably small cost to fit on a td5. Ray

I am working on getting a rear anti roll bar fitted, what bushes did you use for the droplinks? Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

I originally fitted standard rubber ones that came with the drop links but they perished quite quickly so I’ve just replaced them with blue super pro polyurethane ones that I bought from eBay. I’m hoping they’ll last a lot longer Thumbs Up Ray

These are the ones I got, I can’t comment on how they’ll last as I’ve only had them on a few weeks so far Thumbs Up
