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?
 
you will see when you get the kit , i can't remember which ones but its the ones that you look at and think **** me i will never change those ;)
 
Cool, I am seing that Polly bush's are what they are selling. Is this the best way to go?
 
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
 
some peeps love the polys. others swear by the landrover standard ones.
pays yer money and takes yer pick.
