Nylon Wishbone Bushes

Recommended Posts

Rik

Any one had a go at making some?

 

Would there be much use?

 

Does any one possibly have the dimensions of the wishbone bushes?

 

Cheers

i think they wouldn't last too long. if you were to hit a pothole or somthing you would damage the bushes quite easily in my opninion

Don't bother. Get down to Peugeot and get yourself a kit which includes both bushes and bolts for one wishbone. Pug bushes are the best, I have a set of poly things on mine at the moment and they creak like f***.

they likely need regreasing - good excuse to replace them with OE ;)

the Grp A 205 we sponsor has them on, there very harsh, If its a out and out track car then they are ok, was going to put a set on my 205 last week but chicken out when Anthony said his polyurethane ones were stiff so i went for the poly-sport ones,

I collected two of these kits yesterday, they contain all the bolts & bushes for both wishbones not just one for £15 + vat.

 

Even the Pug parts guy was laughing because the individual Pug bushes cost approx £8 each without the bolts.

 

Pug Part number is 3599 07.

17.74 in total Graham?

 

I'm guessing it depends on the type of nylon used, even Acetal can be used, much like that of when i made some rear mounts, its a stronger material and holds the stress better....

Book price is £15.10 + vat but I got two sets for just over £32 with a small discount. :D

 

Bargain.

Graham - just want to check . Am I right in thinking that one of the 3599 07 kits contains 4 bushings + 4 nuts n bolts , enough for 2 wishbones ?

Excuse thickness of this question - but will pug kit 359907 do both n/s and o/s wishbones? Or do I need to buy 2 kits to do both wishbones?

I have one kit already but haven't quite got round to fitting them - and don't want to have the embarrassment of getting ramp time (i reckon I can have them out and new ones fitted in under 2 weeks!), a big ass oxy torch and then looking like a prat as I run out of bushes.

Ta much

Don't respond to the above - I am clearly retarded! If I had read the post after having morning coffee I would have realised that this question has already been answered.

 

Shame on me.
