Not sure, they said they dont do repairs, just a tyre fitters. I looked underneath when it was on the ramp and the rear ones seem to be held on with jubilee clips and the front near side has come away and torn the rubber boot…….bugger!

You will be needing some new brackets, have a couple of fronts if needed, and i think crazyquiff has stock of the rears

Yeah it will be the brackets or rubbers - the bar is a big steel bar, if that's worn through I'd be surprised :?
Rubbers and brackets are easy enough to replace - maybe even poly bush them while you have it off??
