roads are dryer today i think the 255 tyres exaterate the worn bushes in the wet as it feels pretty good now its dry. gonna jack it up and check all the bushes/steering after dinner.

well the spending has begun already
rear steering arms and ball joints fubared so ordered driftworks eliminator kit. ive been informed rear steering hicas is dodgy on them anyways so gonna bin it.
front brake pads
front upper control arm bushes are completely shot

so i think probably loose rear rack joints and loose front bushes were contributing to the sketchy feeling in the wet
