    I cheated and booked it in to get it done but thats a whole tale in itself .......

    You can buy the two large bushes Phil, let me check but I changed mine when I rebuild the rear sub frame. I'm sure they were the same as another bush on the car but a different part number

    Part number for the large bushes are TBS000050, it's the same bush as number 4 https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-TBS000050
    Buggar to change but that's what I put on mine as I changed all three bushes, both 4 and 5. It shows a different part number for number 4, from memory that's TBS000040 but I can assure you they're the same. I bought mine from Scott at DMGRS

    Clutch was done about 6weeks ago although the car is still with them as they was ment to be doing the rear end whilst they had it. I havent seen it in 14weeks.
    I will get my chap who mots my car and van to fit them, at the same time i might get him to fit my discs and pads as they are still sitting here gathering dust.

    14 weeks? Blimey I'm guessing they're having issues?
