ARB bush sizes

Hi guys, had my car looked at by a mechanic today. He's not 100% sure exactly where the knocking is coming from but he's advised to change the ARB bushes first and go from there.

 

I told him I'd look into getting the bushes myself then going back to him to get them fitted.

 

The ones I found on eBay, is it worth getting superpro bushes for a couple of quid extra? My car performance wise is completely standard other than the exhaust and I don't do any track driving, just fast road use.

 

Also it seems they some in different sizes ( 20mm, 21mm, 22mm etc) does anyone know which sizes I need? I will be buying for the front and rear

You should have 34mm fronts and 21mm rears going by your reg number :)

 

We keep the Superpro bushes on the shelf and they are worth the extra over rubber replacements.

Perfect, cheers for the info CM! Fingers crossed this finally gets rid of the horrible knocking but i doubt it! :scare:

Hi rocky, did the bushes get rid of the knocking?

 

No mate, got the car back last night and the knocking is still there :( he found that the front drop links are also very worn, so I'll replace them this week but I still don't think it will solve it. It's such a loud noise coming from the front and the rear I thought it woulda been an obvious spot for a mechanic!

 

I've got a feeling it's going to be the dreaded banana arm! >.<
