Did a bit of reading on the suspension and I picked up some points:
If am changing one of the bushes, I need to change all with same grade stuff else it will tear the old ones off.
Not sure which parts I do need to change though, so I have got an idea. I'll book it for the Pedders quick check, and get that list. That should tell me what bushes needs to be replaced am guessing?
That's the list from the thread. Need to find part numbers for Nolathane:
SPF1160 Front Control Arm - Inner Front Bushing x 2
SPF1500 Front Control Arm Lower - Rear Bushing x 2
SPF1344 Front Sway Bar Mount To Chassis Bushing (16k) x 2
SPF2092B Rear Sway Bar Link Bushing Kit x 2
Rear Sway Bar Mount To Chassis Bushing (18k) x 2 (which one do I need for the GPX?)
SPF1574 Rear Trailing Arm - Front Bushing x 2
----
Nolathane parts:
Front Control arm - lower inner front bushing 45365
*Front Control arm rear has different types....which one?
(Round or Square ones?)Front Sway bar - link bushing 42032
*Front and Rear Sway bar mount to Chassis bushing. Don't know which one from the Nolathene website.
Rear Trailing arm - front bushing 46241
---
* --> need to find out which part number to order.
I know my rear trailing arm bush needs to be replaced. So if I put Nolathane rear trailing arm front bushes, and all my other bushes are all right, do I still need to replace this whole list to keep the grading (for equal wear and tear) through out?
And I need a generic steering boot (is that what it's called?) and a inner left cv boot (is that what it's called?) replaced as well because they are leaking. Are they generic stuff from Supercheap, or are they vehicle/model specific. Any part numbers for these?
I want to try and replace the cv boot and steering boot by myself. The rest of the bushes (control arm/trailing arm, etc) I would need to take it to a mechanic I suppose? I want to get all the parts and take the parts to the mechanic then.
Am I heading in the right direction?
