T25 westy pop top . So I’m thinking of replacing all the suspension bushes on the van over the winter. Trailing arms,wishbones,anti roll bar, tie rods, the hole shooting match. The van passed mot with no advisories in march so no issues picked up there.The van drives well with no knocks or noises. Is it worth doing all this work if there are no safety issues .Will new bushes make that much of an improvement to the ride and handling of the van ? Or should I leave alone until I’m forced into it ? I don’t want to open an expensive large can of worms.
I will be doing all the work myself , I’ve got a decent garage and most of the gear to do it .
Any advice is appreciated.

Re: Suspension bushes
Personally if it's not been flagged as an issue I would be inclined to leave alone. However I do regularly spray these areas with a bit of ptfe oil as part of routine maintenance. Don't know if it helps but hopefully it's worth it.
