I lent my old bushing tool to a mate and he's managed to bend the shaft (don't ask 🙄 ) so what do you recommend/use?.

I'd prefer the type that allows you to fit the bushing's with the shock in situ/dropped from the lower linkage.

Cheers,

jonba : Ta very much for the offer jonba - I'll order the one in stevenk4563 link but could you send over the pics anyway - I'll tell my ham fisted mate to cough up and perhaps he'll buy his own tool.

I got mine from the States. I know its out of the country and all that. But it came in a week and is superb value for money, I am extremely pleased with the set. And not just a Fox fit, it fits just about all eyelet sizes and you dont need a vice either.
