Superflex bushes bit by bit or all in one?

Just purchased some Superflex wishbone and rear beam bushes for the Golf from our good friend TurboTechnics. I'm waiting on steering rack and arb bushes coming in stock.

My question is, as i'm replacing my current suspension, should I wait until I have bought the steering rack and ARB bushes before fitting them all in one go or should I just put on what i've got for now?..

I've sold my suspension on the car to a fellow member and dont want him to have to wait an age for them, but also dont want to have to do a job twice if you know what I mean..

I would wait and go for it all at once  :D  It will be a right pain to take off bits twice . Do the rear first including the roll bar but allow plenty of time , especially if you are going to replace the rear mounts on the axle . Start to soak all the relevant bolts / nuts now in WD40 etc daily and it will all come off much more easily when you start  . Budget for new front lower wishbones if yours are a rusty mess and don't forget you will have the Camber and Tracking to do when completed .

Cheers…….
