Rear Trailing arm bushes
Hi all,
I had a knocking sound from the rear off side suspension.
I have found that the lower bush in the trailing/radius arm where it attaches to the hub is shot.
Is it possible to re-bush these or is it a matter of replacing the whole arm?
Thanks

Hiya,
assuming you can get the arm off you should only need to replace just the bushes, similar post below maybe of some help. I believe the general consensus is that you should do both sides at the same time. Hope that helps, if not, i'm sure it won't be long before someone more knowledgeable than me comes along.

Hi, having just had my rear hubs off , I can say that the bolts through the two bushes are some of the easiest to remove. But watch when putting them back in. They are tricky to line up. I crossed the threads and had to clean them back up with a die.
Don't know about bolt 4 as I didn't go that far.

Hello
I haven't seen that specific bush listed by MG ROVER or any of the Poly companies.
But I would think a poly company would do a generic one if you know the dimensions.
