last set i fitted took me an hour - the hardest part was getting the suspension top mounts in place - the fookers kept falling back out before i could get all the lip round the top thru the hole

apart from that, not to bad really

tighten up the handelling no end - every car should have em

gonna fit mine at the weekend along with a new steering rack also

I got my deflex bushes for my rst from scc, rich done me a good deal on the price. I have had them on the car about a year and they are fine, no probs at all. Some older rsts may suffer from corrosion etc on the fixing bolts/nuts for say arb etc.. so may be worth replacing these 2.

you will see that the outer control arm bushes are the wrong one.

i have them to and the outer control arm bushes are to small.

never had any problems with the last set i had and these look exactley the same and measure the same aswell

the only thing that looks wrong is the crushtube for the inner tca - looks like a 2wd one (M10) where the 4x4 is bigger (M12) - not a problem there neither, as this was the same on the last set aswell - just forced the 4x4 crushtube thru the middle with a vice - interesting fitting it was but no problems at all
