I'm happy to take it for a good flogging sometime mate.  Also in Perth and not too far from Wiggum so very convenient for you!

Worn control blade front bushes with give a shimmy/dog with worms feel to the read end under power. Not usually contained to one gear though.

 

Where are you located?

 

Agreed.

Have a look at the boner looking parts on the front of the rear end assembly op. You can see how the rear end can "steer" itself if the blade control arm bushes are stuffed.

 

Try towing a heavy trailer and you will see how bad it can get.

I noticed a nice increase in stability under power going to those superpro bushes.

Used to work across from a second shop they had in East Freo.  Was great having them there with my old XF - I fixed their PC gear and they sorted out my dead ball joints/bushes :) 

Also had nice cars there a lot, double bonus.

 

Have used them for car check/set up before Racewars as I now work in Ossie Park near their main (now only) shop.  Costly but I've had good results there.
