The pivots in mine are pretty loose and squeaking.
Is it a send away job or can you get a service kit and ball park costs of both if poss?
Thanks.

Not sure that the bushings are serviceable. Be interested to see if the are.

I’d assumed that they would be softer than the post body so they could be replaced, but how do you spell assume……. 🙂

They are. By the power of Google:

Rebuild kit

😉

I’ve not done it, but looking at the included tool, I’d expect it to be easy…

Most excellent

I’ve just noticed that link is for the ST, but the LT model is also listed (extra EU5).

i had the opposite issue with mine – it wasnt busting many thuds. i pushed out the pins, cleaned up the bushings and pins, covering everything in greae and reassembled. it busts thuds again now

Will look at the link ta.
pj, take it u didn’t have play in yours and it was just ‘seized’ a tad?
EDIT – I was going to try google but wanted some feedback too 😳

Just found this link for info.

INFO

PJ did you use the proper tool or sockets to push the bushings etc out?

I dismantled mine for a clean, before reading the instructions, and managed to loose one of the brass washers. So if anyone has a brass washer they can spare i’d be very very grateful??

Fitted new bushings and pins on mine using the kit from SJS.

Dead easy and quick to do.

As said kits are available , just be aware that the original thudbuster , not the ST or LT versions is not rebuildable .
