Poly Subframe bushes

Just spoke to an Engineering firm got to get hold of some Nylon rod but their labour rate is only £25 per hour. I've got to get one set made up first but once I've done that I'll have a cost per set for you guys. Should work out quite affordable

thanks for doing this, esp as you have a set, you are going out of your way seeing as you dont need them done yourself.

cheers m8.

Just a quick update guys, I've ordered a small amount of Nylon 66 for this to test the engineering company out. Just waiting for it to be delivered.

Another update for you, the Nylon turned up this morning, I'll aim to get the first ones turned by Saturday if I can (might have to leave them with the Engineers if they are busy)

Also as far as I can work out these bushes are offset in such a way as to bring the subframe closer to the shell and reduce some of the horrid rear camber. How effective it is though remains to be seen but every little helps I guess

Just a to let you guys know, I'd left the stuff with the engineering shop but haven't had a chance to go and pick it all up as I've been working away. Should have them back soon though.

I'll keep you posted.
