Wishbone bushes??
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Always pays to ask the obvious,,,,have they tried Geman, Swedish and French usually a branch locally or they do mail order.Sorry if you've already been there, my local Cit dealer has no problems sourcing bits from GSF as above.

there shop is on county road (continuation of walton hall lane) in walton (go from the city to queens drive through the middle of walton and its next to a huge junction). If you get really stuck for them, i have a set in the parents garage you could borrow, but you'd probably have to go get them yourself!

gsf liverpools number is 0151 525 1764

website is http://www.gsfcarparts.com/


SMEG GSF have dumped the andyspares.com domain name, and i can never find the other one. Guess i'll be exclusively using the phone now :(

the bottom arm bushes are the same for all the bx's regardless of model, should be quite easy to find, may be worth trying a few smaller private factors, they often stock items like it!

Vanny, your google-fu is weak.

I got that by typing "german swedish french" in the address bar on Firefox, which is the same as google I Feel Luckying!

EDIT: Actually read your message properly... um?

@ hedges, no my google fu is fine and the way i will have to find it from now on, i just seem to have a total mental block when coming up with the address (germanswedishfrench.com, no thats not it . . . hmmm) so have always been lazy and used www.andyspares.com but long has it gone! Could purchase the name just for my own benefit, or grow up and just use google some more :D
