At one point the radius arm bushes changed width. Not sure when though. Others should be the same.

The Holey bushes from Sam are great for flex.
Mine are probably at the stage where most people would replace them (they dont hold the diff castor very well anymore) but ill keep running them (cause i not to fussed).
I got mine fitted about 9 months ago (wild guess) and have been out a shitload of times, easy average one day a week and sum full solid days offroad (80% of the time i am in my 4by its offroad).
At another wild guess i have done about 4000ks on them (i only ever drive my car to ormeau or the shops down the road).
hope that helps.

REAR CHASSIS LOWER LINK BUSH (at chassis end) 2 of needed
