Question Suspension Bits

I'm looking at sourcing my suspension bits and the best deal I've managed to find is from rally design. Can anyone confirm that these are the right parts for the roadster?

Rally design polybushes are PB122 how ever the crush tubes are 2mm too long and will need to be turned down on a lathe. I've seen a set that have been attemped to be done with a hacksaw which will make them fit for the bin.

Yeah they can but remember these bushes wear out so you are better off using what is readliy available and keep things like the brackets as per the book.
