Title: Donut bushes
Post by: Michael2.6 on 25 June 2013, 08:58:44

What are the ailments of failing donut bushes?

I have a rear end suspension problem when going over bumps in the road slight suspension movement
could also be a slight knock aswell

Checked the shocks and springs, exhaust for knocking

look forward to your comments lads

Soggy back end and general wallowing around corners, less pronounced than low tyre pressures but similar behaviour :y

Remove and replace with Monaro poly ones :y

Pedders EP1145 iirc, available from Monkfish for £99 + postage. Kit is the Monaro rear end kit, harrop diff :y

Slight suspension movement...? Over bumps...?

I don't want to sound pedantic or awkward or anything but where's the problem there? :)


What car? Elite? Mv6? Pressures? Tyre tread depth? Even wear?


I presume your getting some steering from the rear sensations?
