Control Arm bushings, shock mounts front and rear

[Kgnast]

So what currently are people doing for this? It's been along while....

The ole crazy train is need of all corner replacements upper and lower, front and rear, and definitely the rear shock mounts. The arms themselves are fine, the bushings are toast. Has anyone created a bushing replacement kit for these cars?

i just did the fronts on my winter ride, i changed all the fronts with lemforder, with febi front and rear upper shock mounts.

Interesting the rear shock mounts were alluminium and the replacement ones were steel.

I did all this when i changed the shocks to koni's, overall not too bad.

AFAIK, I haven't seen anyone successfully replace just the rubber bushings. Even if you could find just the bushings somewhere I don't think the amount of work is worth it when you can get a whole new set of control arms for a few hundred.

Also, as fukinavit mentioned, the stock rear shock mounts are aluminum but the only new replacements I was able to find were (heavier) steel.
