I have tried to enter the diagrams of the bushes and the LR tools and part nos but for some reason it wont let me
Land Rover Numbers :-
LRT - 64-025/2 and LRT - 64-025/1 FOR THE TOP BUSH
LRT - 64-026/3 and LRT - 64-026/1 FOR THE BOTTOM BUSH

If this is a quickish one off job I am sure it would be cheaper paying an expert indy £60 for an hour rather than buying tools to be used just the once etc..

Top bush changed - an absolute doddle with the Vectra tool Unable to do the bottom hub bush as I don't have a big enough bush remover tool or socket to do it Will have a measure of the new bush and get 2 x sockets from Hellfrauds and do the job with a bit of threaded bar

Any update on the bottom bushes?

Not as yet - I've a socket large enough to fit the bearing to push it out but nothing as yet big enough to fit around the bearing to allow it clout of the arm I will get a quote from an engineering firm to knock me one up I have the measurements so shouldn't be to difficult

Looking at your pictures you have shown more than top and bottom rear rose bushes, are the wishbone bushes needing renewed? Also I see front castor arm bushes and ARB in the pictures have you done them yet?


I bought a set of rear rose bushes today 2 top and 2 bottom, I also ordered 2 rear toe control arms as the bushes on mine are knackered, so a few jobs to do in the near future. That and an oil change plus double flush the gearbox again this year.

I had at 73,000 miles play in the inner swinging arm bushes both top and bottom, outer knuckles were shot, toe arm was replaced as this far in, only bushes not touched were the chassis under frame 4 carriers , but they are on the to do list!! at some point, these can be a right b...er appartently.

anti roll bar bushes, currently only available with new role Bar!!, polyflex are looking at it after my enquiry, the more enquiries the faster they will produce front and rear.

hope this helps
