Bilstein replacement bushes
I had a full Bilstein B6 set of dampers fitted early 2017 and have been advised on this years MOT that the top bushes on the rear dampers and the bushes on both ends of the steering damper are starting to show signs of perishing. Only advisory at the moment but standard bushes don't fit the B6 dampers according to my 4x4 garage. Any one got any advice on where to source the replacement bushes?

Thanks Harry

I had to replace my Bilstein front upper and lower bushes, and rear lower bushes, after Approx 18 months as they had all cracked. I’m almost certain I used SuperPro bushes for these but unfortunately ended up ditching them for Fox soon after.

Don’t bother with bilsten bushes, they are Censored , mine cracked after four months. I put new genuine ones on and were all good 14 months later when i sold it.
