Default Front wishbone rear bush

Hi,
A year or so ago I renewed my wishbone rear bushes with ebay purchases marketed as Delphi. They felt lightweight when I compared them to the original ones I took off. I've since developed a judder whilst braking. I'm going to renew both the front discs and these bushes. What I want to know is if these are the real original part.

They are a SLP ie a pattern part, and looking at the size of the void in the bush pictured, I wouldn't fit that to my car

Have you actually checked there is a problem with the ones fitted to your car? if you are sure it has failed, have a word with Jules to get a quality replacement

Thanks Marinabrian, thinking about it they were too cheap to be genuine.

The absolute best ones I've found are the MG production line items from SAIC - they're really weighty, the rubber is of decent quality and we've sold over 500 sets with none failing in service.

Front Lower Arm Bushes - 75 / ZT

Give them a try, if for any reason you don't like them you're welcome to return them.
You'll love them though.

Plenty of others on here have these fitted, I'm sure someone will have feedback soon.
