Wink Here's food for thought

Don't want to sound patronising here

This was my take on the Poly bushes.

After the shock of buying my shocks ( No pun intended ), I must admit, it bought a tear to my eye when it came to paying out a wedge of wonga for my Poly bushes

Then I got to thinking .... Try not to do that too often as it tends to land me in trouble

Why do Poly bushes seem expensive ??, I guess the answer lies with the sheer number needed.
22 of the little beggars, that's 44 Injection moulded bush halves & 22 CNC machined, stainless steel crush tubes .... Sort of puts things into prospective, £4.50 per bush kit !!

Let's say, a few years down the road & your pride & joy fails its MOT on the nearside front, lower wishbone bushes !!??

£10 - £15 for a new pair of bushes begins to seem like a bargain to me.

Just the thoughts of this old duffer
