I can see in the picture of the

Complete bush kit of superpro bushes, there's 6 in total of the rose joints, if these go on the control arms what bushes are the other two?

Insufficient grease........rather than actually wearing out.........is what kills them.

The grease is also there to exclude water.

Mine were showing distress at 30,000km.

Pulled the arms away from the hubs and ran a grease needle UNDER the seal.

Pumped about 5 or 6 pumps from the grease gun to fill each one. Working the grease around inside by exercising the joint will help also.

This is the same reason ball joints usually fail.

The other thing it does when it is full of grease is to stop the boots from collapsing, then creasing, and then tearing over time.....letting the moisture and dirt in.
