Front trailing arm bushes was created by mike390
My Jim is due for its mot soon.
On last years mot I had advisories for:
nearside and offside front trailing arm bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement.
Not quite sure which would be the correct ones to order.
Am a little confused as earlier last year my truck was lifted with a 2.5 mudskipper kit from ORA, which included castor correction bushes?
So am assuming these are not the bushes that have deterioted?
Any help on correct ones to order appreciated
Thanks
Mike

Have spoken to mechanic that fitted the lift kit last year.
He said that he did not fit the bushes to the front radius arms, he fitted them to the rear! :ohmy:
My jimny seems to steer/drive fine as is, so is it worth me getting castor corrected bushes for front, or should I just get the cheaper rubber ones from jimnybits?
Thanks
