Hi all,

I recently replaced my tyres and found from Tyrepower and Pedders that my shocks are soft and lacking control and that my Radius Rod bushes are worn and cracked.

I am required to replace my shock absorbers in my car and have been researching on what brands to get. I have not been able to find any particular model numbers on the forums regarding this. If anyone has replaced there shocks for a 2003 model with KYB's Monroe's etc can you please provide me with the model numbers so I can confirm I am looking for the right parts.

I have the following already if anyone can confirm.

KYB Front Left 334377 Front Right 334376 and Rears 341338

Monroe Fronts E7008+ Rears E1312

Gabriel Front Left G56661 Front Right G56660 Rears G51736

For the Radius Bush I need to replace, I can't find anywhere that sells this online. Would I have to buy it in a kit with new bushes for the whole front end or can I get this separate?

Any help regarding the above would be much appreciated.

Radius rod bushes? Control arm bushes? If it is replace them with poly urethane ones. Get sets from america front and rear. They shouldnt be worn out that quickly unless the cars been slammed for a long time

The car is at 160k now so I suspect that it hasn't been treated well prior to me as this is my weekend car since I have a work van.

Pedders state its the Radius Rod bush however I am keen to get a kit and replace pretty much the lot for various reason.

Whats the American version of the 2003 sportivo?

Thanks again,

I have now found out the following for the bushes.

You can get Whiteline ones. They are part numbers W51424 and W53275 which are actually for the control arm. The Radius Arm/Rod that Pedders quoted a part number on was a Whiteline Control arm with Camber offset.

You can also go with Nolathane which are 45430 and 45589 for the Control arm bushing. Lower Arm Inner Fronts and Lower Arm Inner Rear

For the Shocks I am still tossing that one up. I think I can get the Gabriel's fairly cheap.
