I am amazed when I see the rust on many photos shown on the forum. Some look dangerous what about some waxoyl treatment.

Dangerous....? Well depends on your view of dangerous. Will it fall off? No. It cant.

Will the rear end stability degrade with the bush? Most definately, but its a gradual and makes the driver aware witjout too much drama. Although the sensation from the back is most unpleasent.

When I said dangerous I wasn't  referring specifically to that post but on others that I have seen in the past. A bit of preventative maintainance can save a lot of problems in the fututre

Damage done well before we get them at this age i guess, and if the new part lasts as long as the old, they'll out last the car with all but the lowest miles per year.... Also, whatever is coated on them mustnt degrade the rubber.
