How did the car drive after they were in? I'm doing mine soon, from the looks of it they have NEVER been changed... meaning they have over 180k on them....Originally Posted by Ferret
I swear this car has a sense of humour... in between rain storms decided to go out and lob on the new dogbones, considerably easier than the subframe bushing!
These had at least 1cm play in both sides! Shockin!

Are you rebuilding this car from scratch?
Haha, not quite mate - more just decided to get less lazy with the maintenance - the fact it keeps trying to go sideways on roundabouts was driving me crackers. Started driving it hard a few weeks back and suddenly exposed a shed load of faults in the suspension.Originally Posted by whiskychaser
I've gotta re-do the front upper and lower control arms next - the lower arms have been changed to (what looks to be) cheap steel replacements when they should be aluminium... a cheap fix but when I did it to my TDS it just didnt feel right again. The ball joints have worn out already (might have something to do with the poly bushes) and the steerings gone sloppy!
It never ends
