Well what a pig of a job changing the radius arm bushes is !!!. Two of the bolts had welded themselves to the inner sleeves of the old bushes , had to cut the bolt head and threads off with an angle grinder to get the arms off the car. Need two new bolts now !!!!!!

Drilled the rubber out then used an old screwdriver to drive out the metal sleeves !
