A bush press tool is not required with the kit. Its best to upgrade to superpro polybushes and they go in with a vice or mallet easily.
Service from ORA is always spot on, even when i've wanted custom parts made. I have earlier ora radius arms that are not plated and so offroading has stripped off the powdercoat for me, so they may get a lick of hammerite when I can be bothered.
Send Rob or Hen an e-mail and they always get back fast.

Poly bushes don't last very long where I live as the dust is very abrasive and seeing as my car is brand new I reused the oem rubber ones.
Seriously, I have destroyed sj51 polly shackle bushes in 750km.

Its quite common to have to shave a bit off the bush, especially on the top of the rear shocks.

The new rear arms have nothing to mount the abs string to so I think I will see if I can find my tap and die set and mount the string like the stock arms. Or I might just use cable ties. :whistle:

Shock repositioning brackets on the bottom. Again they are available from ORA or bigjimny I believe
I also welded on ORA bottom bracket skid protection plates ( I think they will just bolt on if you need to). They will help to protect the bottom of your rear shocks from impact damage. The thru bolts are easily damaged.
