The performace bushes are good but make the car more bumpy and rattly.

I'd probably just go for the new arms from ebay.

new arms from ebay are ~220US for 6 arms, but the problem is that it costs this much in postage too...

That's BS. Dude I got a whole microscope shipped from the US for $100 a month ago, about ten times the weight and size... Took five working days too.

well these guys are wankers then.. must be a whole heap of 'handling' on top of the shipping

keep in mind, some ebay sellers do try to get $$ back from shipping and handling..

from what i remember Outlanded bought 2 pairs of the front lower control arms and it only cost $200 posted..
