Hi Guys, Ive heard a dull clunk when going over bumps on the O/S/R of my 3dr jtd jacking it up showed some movement in the subframe to axle pivot bush.
These have been replaced (about the only problem the previous owners had!) two years ago, is it likely that one has gone so soon? and is it a sweet DIY job?
It looks as though you jack the car, remove the pin, drop the axle down, draw the old bush out and then slip a new one in, although past experience tells me its never quite that simple, so any tips ? and anything odd to look out for?
I'm sure I had to do something similar to my Punto, Oh and finally are the nuts and bolts standard items? as we use a lot of M12 long bolts in work (which is what they look like to me)
Cheers Guys
