gv 1600 02 drop link arm bushes

Post by Ginger_boy » Sun May 18, 2014 1:24 pm

Anyone know why my drop link arm bushes don't last very long this will be my 4 set from what probably were the originals. Ball joint bit is ok its the two rubber spacers between the lower wish bone which always seem to disintegrate both sides. I've bought various makes, all seem to end up in the same condition be it cheap £6 ish each to £12ish each, the only one i have not tried are Suzuki originals. I'm wondering if there are some polly bushes which could replace the rubber any ideas :cry:
It' a 4x4 why not drive it across a field
