Well done, so worth the effort. The rear of the car should be good for another 10 years. |

Well done! The bushes in the upper and lower arms are not worth replacing. The arms bend when you extract the old bushes and aftermarket arms are about £100 each.

I think the rear subframe bushes have as much influence on the ride quality as the shock absorbers and air bags. Worth replacing if not done already. |

I got these and they are worth their weight in gold, still not perfect but better than the usual aftermarket ones you see with 3 LEDs

I did it with someone to put a foot on the brake. Not difficult if you have a torque wrench that exceeds the value. Knocking the lock tabs in is awkward but doable. |
