Landrover are more than useless.

i've got a 4x4 and at the top of the intermediate steering shaft there's a rubber bush inside a sleeve where the top joint attatches to the shaft. that went on mine,really bad play in the steering wheel,my mech said he wouldn't even drive it in that condition. got it replaced now,absolute joy to drive again

So this is what they look like when they break...
Parked up in halfords and bang 4inches of play in my steering.
limped it back to my friends and took it apart and try to use a suzuki Sj bush but it was just to big.
One phone call to a good friend JoeRS and he lent me one off a car he was breaking. Fitted that and alls good, while it was in the air i found a Bmw E46 steering column and cut it up and guess what!!! The bush is the same as the Orignal ford one happy days.
Now my mate is cutting me up some inserts and we should be as good as new will ad pics when it comes back from Track designs....

I have just ripped another one of these shitty bushes, when is this concept racing con man going to sort us out? Am I going to have to spend another Ł30 on a different bush from burton's. Well pissed off at the moment!
Tabetha, you've gone quite about this matter. Do you know something we don't? Is there any intention of concept racing supplying an improved design?

or drove into an oncoming car on the road I wonder how much shit you'd be in if that happened
The pics of whats left of that bush is shocking the std one has braiding in it to hold together even if it tears.
I can't believe Tabatha hasn't replied to this thread - He was the one recommending the product and got you lot to buy them even listing the ebay numbers and he's posted on other threads giving more advice ignoring this one.
If you'd bought it from a proper company they would have public/product liability insurance and a phone number that they would answer.
This is a good reason for buying from companys NOT from some that can do it cheaper. You have remember your playing with other road users lives.

I have just fitted on of the super flex ones from burtons, so we will have to see how that performs! I did ask burton if there had been any problems with them and they said no, so fingers crossed!

Cant believe i've only just found this thread, i fitted one of these to my car and the same thing happened to it, i didn't even get it out of the garage!!!
I thought i must have done something wrong while fitting it, pissed off that it failed but i'm glad it did it when it did and not on the road!!!!
