Not sure but powerflex them if you get chance really sharpens things up.

Hi
I am replacing all the bushes on the front with power flex ones. As I am getting inner edge tyre wear (tracking and wheel alignment all fine). I wil replace the anti roll bar bushes if I do not have to drop the subframe . Car has done 120K Thanks Mark |

Hi,
Thinking of doing the same, and I believe that the anti roll bar bushes can be replaced one side at a time without dropping the subframe, however you do need to cushion and support the subframe from beneath... access to the bushes is tight but has been done. I have a Q about the front wishbone lower front bush, which bolt do I measure to tell whether I need PFF19-801 for the 14mm bolt or PFF19-8011 for the 12mm bolt?? which bolt do they mean? thanks,

The 12mm or 14mm bolt is the one that holds the front bush in place single horizontal bolt pointing to the rear of the car the rear bush is held in place by two vertical bolts. Bear in mind that if high miles you may wish to replace the ball joint as well. I have had another look at the anti roll bar bushes and if you remove the strut and hub and wish bone assemblies does not look to bad
