Poly defo worth it yeah. I changed the bushes myself. The ones in the bar are easy. The ones in droplink are easy too if ya know how.

simply wreck the old bush, pull metal tube out etc. Once out grease up new bush and using a vice or similar just squash it in dead simple. Dont use any other tool, just squah hem and they'll pop in in seconds

quick update/write up.

first of all removing the bushes from my MGZS ARB and droplinks.

so the ARB and L bracket bushes basically fell off but the bushes in the droplink were a pain for 5mins until i took a hack saw to the rubber part of the link on one side and just cut through it then the bush again just fell out.

sorry for the bad quality pics but its real hard to take a photo on a touch screen with gloves on :/

i assume at this point everybody knows how to unbolt the brackets and droplinks from the ARB itself eitherway it was simply 6 10mm bolts

i then proceeded to remove the rust with a wire brush scraper and a wire wheel in a drill, then i etched the rest of tthe ARB with a 240grit sand paper to give the paint something to grip

and lastly the the first lick of paint think i will splash out and get spray hammerite next time easier to get a better finish with spray's :)
