that sounds a very good kind of mileage to get out of bushes , considering the weight of the landy

looks like the rear uppers and front lowers are the favourites in wearing out

Had the RRS front lower control arms fitted to mine for nearly 40k now, so, I imagine another few years and then they'll need changing then. Any difference to the ride quality Mike with the super pro bushes?

Pass. Need to find time to fit them Laughing

Currently have a set going into my stepdads D3, so will see how it drives when it goes back together Thumbs Up

They sounds good. The rep came out to me to discuss being a stockist. Before his whole sales pitch, I told him I wanted 3x full sets for my own cars Laughing
They are designed to be as compliant as the OEM rubber bushes for the most part, firming up as they move and heat up

Sounds good in theory, and should last a whole lot longer than the rubber bushes. Just depends how it drives on them Thumbs Up
