Replacing your Bushes

[RichardK]

*** Apologies to anyone whos posts are deleted from this thread. Any useful info on them will be added in here. The last thread on bushes cascaded to the point where it confused everyone, so I'm trying to make this one accurate and leave no room for over spending like I did (by about £150 lol)

BUSHES

After doing a LOT of research on bushes and spending a LOT of money that I didn't need to, here are the part numbers for all the bushes (front and rear) and where to order them from.

All are from the UK and arrive within 24-48 hours.

Supplier: Superflex.
Contact Name: Chris Witor
Web site: www.superflex.co.uk
Telephone: 01749 678152


REAR:

8 x SPF0903 - Rear Anti Roll Bar Link Pin Bush, 8mm ID - £1.98 each

1 x SPF1485/25K - Rear Anti Roll Bar to Body Bush, Kit of 2, 25mm - 11.02 per pair

1 x SPF0246K - Diff to Cross Member Bush Kit of 2, 1 only - £38.16

FRONT:

2 x SPF 1483K - Front Trailig Arm bushes - £89 per pair

1 x SPF1485/25K - Front Anti Roll Bar to Body Bush, Kit of 2, 25mm - 11.02 per pair *** TO BE CONFIRMED - THEY MAY BE 24MM ***

4 x SPF 0927 - Front Tie Rod (strut bar) Bush - £5.35 each (£21.39 total)

8 x SPF 2092B - Front Anti Roll Bar Link Pin Bush, 10mm - £2.19 each (£17.84 total)


NOTES:

The rear subframe bushes are not available from Superflex, to the best of my knowledge. I had some made for me out of Nylon. Shaun had some made for his from Aluminium.

I also did not buy the front trailing arm bushes off superflex, I had some nylon ones made for myself and Shaun. £98 seems a little excessive.


This kit http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PR...C06A/23-4100ZX does NOT fit the S12 at all. Do not buy it. I learnt the expensive way.
