My faithfull old bus has front suspension that's squeaking like a sack of rats .
I'm pretty sure the culprit is the bush between the bottom of the shock absorber and the suspension arm.
Anyone replaced them?
Are they likely to be a pig to press out and polybush?
Would I be better off just chucking a new suspension arm on (fair chunk more money but possibly less hassle)?
Last thing I can recall doing suspension bushes on was a Defender... I think there were fewer moving parts in the whole car than my Passats front suspension
PS pretty sure the Audi A6 of similar vintage had the same setup on it
