So, when I sent my chassis off to the powder coaters, I had left the metalastic bushes in. Previously this hasn't been a problem. I think this time they must have run the oven much hotter, because the rubber has vanished from each bush, and I am 6 down.

I have 3 or 4 spares, but I need 6.

Does anyone know where to get these or have any spares?

I can't go down to 12mm because I reamed all the chassis holes out to 1/2" as well - I had lots of problems with the bolts slipping and making the rear sloppy, so I fixed it.

It's 1/2" on the inside, and 27.11mm on the outside

All help gratefully appreciated.

Have you tried Steve at fury? ...or go to poly bushes. That really I.proved mine. I have a couple of used bushes but was savi g them for when I finally get around to soft mounting my diff.

I've not spoken to him yet. All these bushes are on the diff cradle to help with location. I'm happy to go for something stiffer. Every suspension joint that rotates is a spherical bearing.

I've found 3 in the garage. I must have acquired them when we bought the Phoenix stuff. We never used metalastik anyway. However, they measure 27.00mm on the outside. 35mm width. Two have tapered lead in on the end. The other has square ends. Anyway, you can have them if you want them.

U2U me.

Raw should be able to supply them .

I replaced mine with the ones Minitici suggested. Cost around £100 for a full set on a live axle set up. I think that's 10 bushes?

The Spax shocks use different size bushes.

I still have all my old ones. Some are shagged and some are ok. I'd send them to you but my car parts mule has just come back from the UK and it might be a couple of months before he goes back. New ones would be better anyway.
