My 1993 import 2.2vtec failed the mot today, both rear springs fractured, I have a set which I purchased from jozefsan a few months ago, while these are being changed are there any other bits such as bushes which should be changed while the springs are being changed? Thanks for reading.

Any idea where I can lay my hands on some - can't seem to find any upper arm ones anywhere (aside from Honda)
