    Nah no mounts for a PAS rack, and there isnt a different kit.

    :)

    You save a fotune buying the total kit, the wishbone bush's alone cost 20 :)


    The PAS rack only has 1 mount, so you can jus buy a single powerflex one if required :)

    You don't need to buy Powerflex rear axle bushes, I've got Rally Design's cheap bushes on my rear beam and happy with them, esp for 11+ vat each [:D]

    One thing will say about the prothane bushes, make sure you fit them with plenty of copper grease especially the front bushes that rotate in the subframe, mine have been on for ages and have never squeaked.

    mine seems to move abit, my passenger side wishbone was replaced a while back and doesn't seem to be as thick, so the bush seems to move about 2mm up and down when in it [:s]

    Well if its loose top to bottomk that would suggest that bottom part has been bent down a fraction, therefore tightening the bolt up more will pull it up and stop it moving :)

    no, you know on the bush its got a thinner bit in the around the bush for where the wishbone hugs it? well the wishbone goes around it but unlike the otherside its not as tall in the gap around the bush?
