I'm not entirely sure what bushes or pins I have. My file doesn't have any receipts for replacement, but being around 45k miles, and an advisory or king pin play several years ago on an mot, which disappeared in subsequent mot's, I assume they have been replaced. I would expect it originally had devol bushes. Unlike your s2, I don't have any bearings at all.
