big thanks to rufe for sorting me out with new delta links bushes.

Phoned dealer today to get an idea how much they are after to change them.. £125+vat.. what do u think, i didnt think it was that bad as its looks a real bitch, or do i get the delta links off and take them to get the bushes pressed in???

Buy the tool from Rufe to remove them. Then once the link is all unbolted and the rear arm supported, use lots of heat around the link while adding tension to remove the bush. Once it has been removed clean all the remaining plastic sleeve out using a good file ( after cooling). Fitting can be a little awkward but using grease and rigging up a good heavy duty quick clamp to press it in, the job can be done.
