Bushes on my Escort rear shock absorber are shot, looking on the Internet there appears to be bushes that could be suitable, has anyone else tried this? Thanks

Yes I have used them a few years ago on my BGM shocker. At the time the BGM bushes were not available. From what I can remember they weren't too hard to fit. Still on there now and still ok

Done a set on a Escort, no drama easy to do. They were just ones from India, at the time really cheap but they seem to have crept up abit in price.....blame Brexit!!

Lol I got mine from here
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAMBRETTA-RE ... SwbShbLj~Abecause no one else had them at the time I was looking but there are a lot more on ebay now. Majority look like they've come from the same factory so there are some a couple of quid cheaper. The BGM ones were expensive compared to these, although as I didn't buy any cannot comment on their quality.
