Good afternoon all.

Whilst hunting down some 'orrible squeaking coming somewhere from the front suspension I've now found that the lower bushes on the front suspension need replacing.  I've been searching but so far haven't found a part number.  Do they sell just the bushes or will I need to replace the ECS shocks?  I've so far replaced the drop links and ARB bushes.  The shocks are producing more of a clunk.  It's annoying trying to find the squeak.

So I have had another look around the forum to see if I can find a solution regarding the front shock bushes.  

I have found a few places including Milners for poly bushes and read that YOZA cut down some skateboard wheels!  I don't' really want to go down the poly route if I can avoid it as they need lubricating.  has anyone come up with a suitable alternative?  Are there any universal rubber options?  or one from a similar vehicle?  Alternatively it looks like replacement shocks.

Take a trip to your local Motorbike shop.

you need 27mm bushes with a 10mm centre metal sleeve.

Something similar to these:- rubber bushes
