W/bone Bushes Wear 2B Plus

[johnlrichardson]

Drivers side rear bushes on the top w/bone have had to be changed twice in 12months. I think its the mounting at fault. but the other side of the car is ok. Has anyone else had this problem and cured it.

Check alignment of the bushes with each other with a length of 10mm (bolt size) silver steel,they must be true to rotate about the same centre. Or is wear due to corrosion? in which case add a grease nipple to the "eye" 7 when re-assembled grease can force out & keep out any moisture.

Thanks Florin

I should have tried that but its back together now. I think the mounting is angle iron across the chassis with a short piece bolted together to form a channel. and not a square tube like the other mountings. Which may be flexing.I thought I read ages ago somone else had this trouble
