Hi Macca - The dimensions are not always that important, I think its more the durometer or something like that. My point was - "What is a good one" Everyone has thought they had good ones, but almost all have failed, the Rockcrawler, CAL offroad, SOLID, they have used red urethane, yellow urethane, Prado bushes, landcruiser bushes, and Nissan bushes. I think it is better offgoing with something tried and tested, like OE, or PP. They had similar issues in the US, but have mostly gone back to OE (JKS and teraflex) or PP style. not trying to start an argument here, i would just recomend something tried and tested. I have had many DW related issues. The theory that 99% of DW issues is a load of rubbish, but I think the trackbar is far to important to try a different bush with.
PS. I have got other issues - some serious issues that no one can find. I am not 100% sure that my OE bushes are flogged, you can see where the rubber is coming away from the outer sleeve and the crush tube. Does this mean they are stuffed - Apparently but I am not convinced. I have tried 3 different Panhards in the last two weeks so probably not.

Tom, no offense but to get 5000 km out of stock (best) with no off road, then you have other issues.
The op just needs to ditch the crap Solid bushes as posted by MANY on this forum and fit good ones! Where is the experimenting in that.... It's not myth busters, it's just mechanics!
But hey it's your money feel free to waste it is you enjoy that!
