Figure 8 Bushes?, where to buy? Options

[sosolidsaq]

Hi Guys!

After a stressful week trying to find an annoying creaking noise from the front left handside suspension, i came to realise that its my figuire 8 bush. I greased it and put it back in and it seems fine, i have a feeling the noise may come back, so my question is where is the best and cheapest place to get these bushes?

oh btw mines SS3 Gen6 with SuperStrutSuspension

any help would be great

PS. Just realised that this should be in Suspension/Brakes and Handling section. Mods feel free to move this topic

hmm, not sure about the nipples mate, can't say i've ever seen anything like that.

Before disasembling anything I would try getting some wd40 or similar into the joints and see if that temporarily gets rid of the squeeks. If you spray 1 joint at a time and leave it to soak in for a while then you might be able to narrow down where the noise is coming from (what I mean is spray 1 joint, leave to soak if still noise then spray another etc until noise is gone, then you could maybe disassemble that joint and regrease if necessary?)
