72 Super suspension parts
Team, got to replace some bushes in my front suspension, can anyone point me to a supplier of reputable parts in Australia? Need steering damper
bushes straight away, will most likely do them all if I can get a kit. Thanks in advance,
Whitty

Its pretty low already, bushes are starting to get flogged out a bit so was looking to replace all with a new set. Steering damper bush was non
existent. Was hoping that there may be some mob stocking this stuff that I didnt know about. Car is reasonably low as is, been done a while back, like
I said earlier probably due for a freshen up.

So called Mick motors, got parts sent overnight, turned up next day. Excellent service. Empi parts. Wait and see how long they last I suppose.

Not all Empi parts are shit. It's a shame how a name known for performance and quality is now synonymous with "shit".
It's happened to many quality products - I'll never touch a SMEG appliance again.
PS. Nice Beetle
