Re: Fensport SuperFlex Full Kit Group Buy £145 a Set (Pg 4 on)
Mine arrived today and I'm very impressed with the quality. Started to fit them to one of bottom arms that I have restored and I must say that the inner one piece bush was a pain and took all my engineering mastery of getting round something to get the dam thing in.
Eventually I used a motorcycle type exaust clamp to act like a piston ring compressor to squash the diameter of the bush down before pushing it in with the vice.
The old ones are also a pig to remove. I have found the best way is to cut each end off with a cutting disk in the angle grinder, then drill out as much of the rubber as you can then push the bush out using two sockets and the vice.
I think when I do the other side I may take some photo's and produce a fitting guide, just to make it a bit easier for people in the future. However I dont think I will be doing the others untill next week at the earliest.

A fitting guide would be great, as Ive not started mine yet. Any useful ideas would be appreciated. :+:

I'm taking some photo's at the moment so when I have finished the next side I will post something up. Should be next week.

Burn them out a blowtorch is your friend.

A long 22mm socket is an essential to remove the front and rear tie rod nuts, an angle grinder, blowtorch (see above) and the patience of a saint.
