Hi guys, just been working on my car, got it jacked up so the suspension strut was fully extended and i noticed the yellow rubbery things on them are totally shagged....
1) what are they?
2) can they be replaced?
at a guess they are the bushes but i am not very mechanical so cant say lol

i was hoping you would post  cheers mate
Are standard vauxhall ones better? do they just wear out over time or have i done something wrong?

they die over time because of low suspension. means they are doing/have been doing their job properly

you can buy poly ones for about £4 each that will last a bit longer. I have boxes full of bumpstops you could have but the postage would cost more than they are worth.
