I know theres a lot of people on here them, myself included so....

I bought an entire car kit (rear beam, rear ARB, rear shocks, exhaust system, front suspension, front arb, steering rack, bottom arms & front ARB)

The rear shock top ones, again fine, not an issue. However, rear shocks lowers are way to big diameter, like 5mm dia to big!!!

And on the front, the lower arm bush's are massivly to long (2mm+) and again around 5mm to big a diameter!!!

So, as cheap as they are, be warned, there a funking mare to fit!! Unless you, like me, have acess to a bench mounted grinder to downsize the diameter of them, think twice about buying them!!!

i don't recommend the orange ones at all :( when i bought a set for my corsa they were an awefull fit, a right pain in the back side tbh.

best ones i have found are the poly race bushes (red ones) which can be bought at a very very good price from www.rallydesign.co.uk these were a perfect hassle free fit and cheap as chips. also handy for other consumable (goodridge lines are about £30)

I fitted a few orange Deflex/Flo-flex ones and the rear strut top was too big to get the nut on the top.

Is this the range you're referring to?

There the ones Ian! The only ones that are a sh1t fit, are the lower rear shock bush, and front bottom arm bush! All the rest fit snug, however the aforementioned are a MEGA nightmare!!
