Subject: TR6 rear suspension bushes
Listeners,
In response to Dave's reply to Paul Mitchell, I'd like to recommend an
alternative to using WD40 on rubber bushes. I'm not a chemist but to
me, this mixture of materials doesn't seem like a good idea to help
insure the long-term quality of the rubber.
The alternative which I've used, that should not present any problem
whatsoever, is liquid dishwashing soap.
