Lag to ife isn’t far. Highest 4hrs with traffic and checkpoints. You won’t even need to stop for refreshments or to stretch legs. It’s smooth sailing. Godspeed

Yes lower arm bushing and control arm bushing.

The Tyre thing has been suggested I have declined the offer I am afraid of fire due to type of rubber and damage to car parts due to forceful insertion of the Tyre rubber

might be because they are chinko shocks, sway bar linkage , before you bought the chinko do you use to change the bushing at about 6 month?

It's not shocks quality, if the shocks are bad, first guy to give way would be linkages, then the shock bushings and pad next is drivability issue, if you enter bridge divider or pothole with speed and you no hold steering well, sorry is your case.

The bushings are of low quality coupled with the fact of bad road, The Lekki Epe express way which is my terrain often spoils it. The good thing is that it can be managed nah after two years you really hear the sound continuously for now just 1 of the bushing is bad.

ugreat:


U still de road?

Got to my destination at IFE around 11 something, ate and freshened up then left IFE exactly 12:30.

got to ibafo at around 3:30, the roads back were better and there was no check point not even 1 while I was coming back.

I used 1hr from ibafo to long bridge another 1hr from long bridge to Berger

1hr from Berger to Iwaya where I droped my bro, party everywhere and bad roads

30mins to my home, got home 7:10

That may depend on how recent your plate number is

Boss what is the effect of newness of plate number to how one is treated at check point

Those thieves will stop you at almost all checkpoints expecting you to drop

They will take their time to crosscheck and compare your VIN with the one on your papers. Some will go as far as checking and comparing your engine number.

God help you if one digit is incorrect

Na waoh, like how many month is considered new, also how can dey tell by looking that the plate number is new
