BUSHES AND BUSHINGS, RUBBER BITS GALORE


Recommended Posts

If I was to replace every rubber "thing" under the car, with poly bits, what parts would I need and what are ALL the names they go by? Anyone really know their bushes and bushings? I'm looking for the cause of a creak just to the right of centre in the steering action. With the foot on the brake pedal I can feel it through the pedal. Control arm bushes? Track road end? Tie rods? Not very good with all these bits!

Hi,

Be aware that although the bushes themselves aren't badly priced the actual fitting can be a right pain the the arse.

Mines in currently getting the front done. The passenger side control arm/wishbone is alright, but the sump gets in the way of a bolt on the drivers side (UK). So either the engine needs to go up or the steering rack need to come down.

Last week I had the back done. The bolts fixing the rear axle bushes where so seized that they had to be ground out.

So worth it though. My '92er feels like a new car
