My local one man band mechanic picked up the Nissan today its gone off to have the nearside rear suspension bushes replaced and new rear dampers & an MoT.

Having Polybushes on the short upper axle control arms, Nissan bushes on the long lower suspension arms to keep the ride a little more comfortable. Already has this combination fitted on the offside a few weeks ago now needs matching suspension response on both sides.

Hopefully that will mean all the rear end is as good as new. Rear ARB links replaced a couple of years ago.

The R3mR back today all rear end twitch gone, new gas filled rear shocks fitted all as tight as a drum and a firm Bum.

Yippee back in time for Conwy break this weekend.

MoT passed - result
