Has anyone tried fitting the gen landrover ones? if so what are they like to fit for the Diy'er?
Yep, see my post earlier on in this thread.
I tried Bearmach (blue) ones for a while and really didn't like them. I found them more awkward to fit than OE ones and when fitted the ride was harsh and you could feel all the vibrations etc. Junked them and went back to OE which are perfect.
You can try the geniuine Polybush which are easier to fit plus you can choose from three different grades, more expensive but you get what you pay for.
Me personally, I will stick to what LR specified as they just work so well.
