Team,

I have been slowly working my way through the BF Typhoon I recently purchased so I can compile a list of what needs doing and get stuck in.

Anywho after some spirited driving on friday night I decided to have a look at the front end as the car was quite unsettled under hard cornering.

Below are a couple of vids of the front lower bush and the upper control arm bushes. As mentioned the car has 92000kms on it and has had 4pot brembos on it since the factory.

From the vids you can see why I harp on about the importance of bushes when trying to cure handling/brake shudder issues/

I think its the front bush on teh upper arm that actually has more play in it then the rear one, that's actually how it is new, as the front one has more of a void in it. and the rear one is a solid one.....its easier to explain if I had a pic of it lol

they used one of eachof these in the upper arm, lots of play there and yes I know these are not genuine bush pics howeer if you look at the ones ford sell you or look it up they are identical to these
