I would it's makes a huge differance getting the flex out of the rear bush, the front bush does nothing really just up and down movement.
Ball Joint either OE or Motaquip/Lemforder, I've stoped using GSF for most things now as the V tech stuff they sell is poor and again doesn;t last 12 months, OK for a run of the mill garage but not me.
No mounts at all for a while

I did 40k on normal powerflex wishbone bushes and removed them because everyone slated them on here. On inspection they were still in perfect condition. I agree the purple compound is a bit soft - so I replaced them with powerflex black compound bushes which are proper hard. Im confident they will out last the car.
