I think I need to change all the bushes in the radius arms, on my 200tdi, as I can wobble them by hand. What do I need to get to do hte job?

Sorry I did not quite explane. All I have seen for sale is the full bush kit. Should I be changing everthing on the car or just the parts that need doing.
How easy a job is it, do you need a press to get them out etc?

you will probably find most of the bushes are shot and replacing them all makes it ride a whole lot better, but most of the bushes are seized and rusted onto their counterparts. big hammer and freeing oil are order of the day. sometimes a big socket helps to remove some of the bushes.

If I buy the kit what other bushes do I get and where are they?
PS. What is freezing oil?

freeing not freezing, you know like wd40/duck oil
bsically you get every bush that is on a discovery, but if i remember rightly about 4 or 5 of them you dont bother with.

Oh sorry it was my reading letting me down again. Of corse I know what WD40 is. Makes a mess but does not always free everything unless it is loose allready.
Yella, What are the 4 bushes that I would not need to change?

proper polybushes are expensive, places like paddocks or mm do a cheaper make that are just as good check out one of the landy mags
