Need advice for suspension bushings.

[turbolover]

Hey guys,
I got a 1997 putra and I think it has some suspension bushes which needs to be replaced. Can I know how many bushes are there under the car? How much will it cost to replaced? Are those harder PU type bushes suitable if I wanna achieve a comfortable ride? Hope someone here can help and maybe direct me to a workshop that does this kinda of service. Thanks.

There's quite a lot. Superpro will stiffen the thing quite significantly so if it's comfort you want, best stick to stock. Price depends on which bushes rosak and need changing. Some of them like the lower arm bush, it's cheaper to change the whole arm (which comes with a new bush).

if you wanna achieve a comfortable ride for sure those super pro bushing is out the car will rattle like anything in our road conditions especially when you cross those yellow lines
just stick to mmc bushing or proton bushing
stock is always best when it comes to comfort

You know, there are some inexperience mechs out there. The previous car I had they said the only bushes are the lower arm bush. But as I suspected there are more. Much more. Anywhere to recommend me to go?

Depends on what needs to be changed la. The most basic ones that break a lot are the lower arm bush, steering rack bush and antiroll bar bush and link. These can be changed by almost all mechs but if you're concerned about workmanship, then consider aftermarket shops like EA Autoworks in Bukit Jalil or those in Sunway. Just be careful about kena chop in Sunway though.

Hmmm EA Autowroks huh? May try this since it's not too far away also. I reckon it's pricing is reasonable since you mention this. Thanks. Will try it out.

Thanks. Will give him a call to find out more. By the way will adjustables for wira be able to fit a putra? Cos this guy bought it for his wira but didn't use it. deal is good so i'm considering. Thanks.

 

[nuno]

hi bro,
any type of suspension/adjustable is fit to wira,satria,putra because the platform is almost same and some part
is interchangeable.
