Hey All....

I just purchased some Nolothane Steering/suspension bushes, front and rear for $65!!
should help out alot with handling/control ( roundabouts...woohoo!)
I also got a full gasket kit (head, inlet, exhaust valve seals,rocker cover...etc) (VRS) for $45.

All from Ringwood Auto Parts (ebay store) the guy is real friendly and knows stacks about magnas and really helped me out...

So if anyone is after some good parts,(water pumps, seals, brake pads, suspension ANYTHING) check em out....

geeze thats pretty good...

new bushes make a huge difference on aging cars, mine had done 250 odd before i changed and it was like chalk and cheeze

its a fairly big job doing the trailing arms and control arms, they are the worst. if your really keen get some pineapples made up for the xmembers or use a solid piece of metal. it really tightens up the chassis (acts like a strut brace)

i recently done it, made a huge difference to my handling...

also changed the sway bar little rubbers... all up cost me about $50 for balljoint boots, front and rear control arm bushes, and 8 of those little rubbers for the sway bar.

well worth it... my rear bushes dont need replacing just yet.

Did that include the sway bar link and mount?
Either way it is damn cheap.

I have been saying for a while now Rob at Ringwood is the man!
