Hi Just checking over the cab today ahead of it's six monthly mot check and discovered that the rear spring bushes are sh***ed again after only 8,000 miles, the genuine ones lasted well over 100,000, getting charged loads of money for the job as its fairly labour intensive even with a ramp but they seem to be using sub standard bushes, anyone else have any experiance with these ? |

The new ones are probably made in China. |
