I’ve just pulled the back axle out so I can do a diff swap and fix anything else I find in there that needs doing. I was a little disappointed to find both radius arm bushes were starting to tear. These were replaced a couple of years ago, so haven’t been in long and have probably done no more than 10,000 miles in that time. They weren’t genuine parts, but I’d hope they’d last a little better than this. I’ll try and find genuine ones for the reassembly. This might explain why the car always felt a little loose from the back end.
How long should radius arm bushes last?

My non genuine ones lasted for 2,500 miles. They were not worth fitting.
Its true, but Enzo never said it

I’ll be fitting genuine ones when it goes back together again. Hopefully they’ll last longer.
