Default Suspension Bushings

I need to replace the rear suspension bushings in my WG. Does anyone know of the best place in Australia to order them from?

Ebay stores usually do OK. Depending on what you need to do or the tools you have access too (e.g. press), it is often easier to buy new replacement arms.

Yep like Bodge said eBay is a good choice. There's a kit for nearly every bush in the car plus end links for 297 at the moment.
Or try Rockauto, they have had my stuff here in under a week,

Look for Crown or OMIX ADA parts, I find they tend to have better durability. Also look at replacing the rear balljoint while you are under there.

+1 for what Grippy said re: RockAuto, they may be in the US but they are good, very good. I buy basically everything from them, they have it all in stock and it's on my doorstep in between 3-7 days. The longest I've had to wait is 10 days and to add to the reason to go to RockAuto, their pricing including freight is cheaper than you can get the same parts locally.

They are fantastic, I can't believe how quick some stuff has rocked up, days to Adelaide, quicker than buying something from Sydney.

Yep, plus you can buy the good quality gear, not cheap imitation crap.
