| Hypothetically speaking... ![]() ...If someone was to need a shock absorber fitting (replacement part already obtained) and front ball-joints fitting (either supplied by fitter, or bought from BMW) on a ONE with over 50,000 miles - would this be a good time to replace the bushes (and would it save on labour costs)? If so, would a ONE benefit from uprated bushes (other handling mods: wide grippy tyres, Koni FSD, 4xGTT braces)? If so, in what way? All the best, Andrew.

| Hi, in short yes its nearly always cheaper in labour costs to replace the bushes at the same time, we would normally do it the other way round and reduce the fitting costs of the ball joints and strut if the Superflex items were supplied and fitted buy us. The improvement will depend on the condition of your old bushes we have seen them destroyed on 25,000 mile cars and have also seen a 75,000 mile car with perfect ones, but I think they may of been changed on a Mini cherished check, the fact you are using bigger wheels may indicate yours could be worn. |

| The front wishbone bushes dont seem to add any extra road noise, the engine mounts do add a little extra vibration when first fitted, but they do loosen up with time. Yes its the front bushes that wear the most. |

| Just want to say thanks to Adrian and Dave for my new bushes this morning ![]() Very pleased so far and my worries over the engine mounts producing extra vibrations have proved unfounded ![]() Definitely worth the trip down ![]() Oh yea, can you slap some yellow paint on that first speed mountain, I very nearly missed it |
