Wishbone silent block replacement

Made of rubber and metal, the silent block bushes are fitted onto the swing arms to damp the vibrations and reduce the noise produced by the suspension. Driving over uneven surfaces with your brake brake pressed is a typical mistake, which results in acceleration of wear of the entire suspension. It result is play which affects the comfort of driving and the suspension characteristics. Their failure causes deterioration of the other suspension elements, including a substantial tyre wear.
