red astra Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Hi there got an astra 1.6 hatch 2013. Time to replace rear axle bushes. Going to replace both sides. Is it OK to do one side at a time then the other is it feasible to to drop 1 side then the other. Mr Haynes says drop the complete axle. What is your thoughts on e bay ones? Some for £19 others 40 - 50 quid each. What would be stronger and last longer. Could buy cheap but don't know if they will last Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 No, it would have to be a complete axle set at the same time for the handling not to be compromised Powerflex are the best ones to purchase from experience but may cost more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red astra Posted May 18 Author Share Posted May 18 I intend to do both at the same time but wondering if it is feasible to do one side at a time. Ie do one side then do the other after I complete this side or drop both sides at same time I have both bushes here. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
