I dont have an M but i did refresh the rear of my car a few years ago. All new bushes RTAB RARB and the bushes in the axle sub frame. I used standard bushes as i had heard that there can be nasty jolting feelings transferred to the chassis from the drive train. But the limiting kit (I made my own) Its is after all just some machined washers with a taper. And i think it really made an improvement. And didn't sacrifice any comfort. Next thing for me is to fit the H&R rear ARB and i think i will use powerfelx bushes on this.

That would be me!! I have been busy upgrading the M, and your tool! Makes the job completely doable by anyone really. Would be a complete PITA, potentially not even possible for most without! Will drop you a message next time I'm over your direction, if you need it sooner just let me know
My 2p, I went with new standard (possible CSL spec, slightly firmer, can't remember) and the turner motorsport metal limiters. I took the cages out, drilled them, gave them a good clean and a lick of paint. Nice little satisfying job for a weekend. Because I change a lot of other bits and pieces whilst there I can't isolate what improvements are down to them alone though unfortunately.

I am in no need for it. I had just forgotten who had it
Just message me when your next near by GuidoK said:
I got the arb second hand without the bushes.

Don't want someone's old bush
How much do you guys reckon a good Indy would charge for putting on new discs and pads all round and switching out the engine and gearbox mounts and RTAbushes and putting the limiter kit on?
Guna ring my garage on my next day off and see with them just wanted to know how much you guys reckon beforehand cheers

Not fancy doing it your self? Disc and pads and engine mounts are straight forward to install.
Simo said:Bump. No one had an Indy fit any of these parts before??
Am I the first?
Sorry cant help i do all my own work. But my advice is get more than one quote. And try and use a indy your trust or recommended. Its going to be a fair few hours work.
Simo said:Cheers man will do.
How much would you charge mate?
If i had the time i would just charge you for a days work. whats fair for a Saturdays work £150??
But i really dont think i have the time. Where are you as i can recommend a very good indy in Oxford.

I had my springs and decat fitted at main dealer for £150
So may be worth asking a main dealer and smile as they can be OK as they know lose business to older cars so they do try
Discs and pads are easy enough
