Rear bush upgrade?
« on: June 16, 2017, 10:37:17 pm »
I know that there are plenty of options for rear bush upgrades with whole kits available but I have been wondering if any particular rear bushes are prone to wear and therefore should be considered for changing first. I have a scirocco with 70k miles, bilstein b12, superpro LCA/ ball joints and eibach ARBs so the front is pretty much taken care of.

As an aside, i did have Eibach prostreet s coilovers and ended up taking them off due to knocking but the knocking was still there, turned out to be the tailgate!

The rear arm bushes are common but the bolts are normally seized in and you end up replacing the full arms :(
