Results now in......

Just one seized (right rear camber) but its within tolerance so no major hassle.

Andy very happy !

Wobbly, groova and S2000Si were the closest.

One day when I have some extra pennies burning a hole I'll get it unseized.

Thanks to Tom and his team at TGM - top bunch of guys....

So what is the deciding factor here ?

component quality / manufacture, road salt, driving style , luck ?

I always hose the underside of the car a few times over the winter to get rid of some of the salt...

No but I'm considering asking them to do that once I have some cash to do it. Means stripping them all - TGM reckon not much short of a days work. And they might as well replace the seized one while they are at it.

Sorry to piss on anyones fire, but just because youve had your geo done, dosn't mean your bushes arnt seized, as some dodgy geo places will just turn the rubber bush in the arms sleeve, as the bolt it seized to the bush, ( which knackers your bush) , just to get your geo in range.

If the bushes are seized but the geo is within range, what does it matter
