Question Flo-Flex watts linkage bushes?

Has anyone here had any experience with Flo-Flex bushes for the watts linkage on a Discovery 2?



A member on AULRO < Watts Linkage bushes, Flo-Flex v OEM - Page 3 - Australian Land Rover Owners > purchased and attempted to fit them but found that they crushed when being tightened to the specified torque setting - apparently this occurred at only 100nM when the specified torque setting is 155nM:

When contacted about torque settings for their products Flo-Flex have provided the following vague advice:

If you look at the design of ours, you can see there is a lip that you press the bush to. Therefore it is unnecessary to use these torque settings.

Kind Regards,

Rich.

I have done a few searches and the only discussion that I have found on this product is < http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f8/rea...es-266066.html > and provides little detail.

I am interested to know if anyone else has had experience with the Flo-Flex watts linkage bushes?
